Cliftonville FC head to Taylors Avenue for a Boyle Sports Premiership fixture against Carrick Rangers this Saturday, September 12. This match represents the third away day of the 2026/27 league campaign for the Reds.

The club finished fifth in the final 2025 Premiership table, amassing 47 points from 13 wins, 8 draws, and 12 losses across 33 games. Their recent form at the end of that season was a mixed bag, recorded as LWWLL. The new league season is not yet underway, but this weekend's match is a key part of the early schedule.

Cash turnstiles will be in operation at Taylors Avenue for supporters paying on the day. Adult admission is priced at £15, while a concession ticket costs £10. For families attending, several bundle options offer significant savings. A ticket package for two adults and two children under 16 is available for £40. A bundle for one adult and three under-16s is priced at £36, and an option for one adult and two under-16s costs £28. General sale tickets are also available in advance through Carrick Rangers' own online ticketing portal.

Looking back at the concluded 2025 season provides context for the team's current position. The Reds ended that campaign with 49 goals scored and 48 conceded, resulting in a narrow positive goal difference of +1. In the title race, they finished 26 points behind the champions, Larne.
