IFA Championship One: 'Stute seek first league win against Lisburn Celtic

Manager Kevin Deery has said that Institute need to ‘target points’ as their immediate aim as his side welcome Lurgan Celtic to the Riverside this afternoon (kick-off 3.00pm).

Despite only one point to the credit, Deery (pictured) is happy with his side’s attacking play so far this season, even if they have lacked a little composure in the final third.

But it is another aspect of their play that he believes needed remedying.

“I think we’ve missed a lot of chances in some games this year and then we get a wee bit uptight.

“I’ve said to the boys that whenever the games are tight in the division we’re in we have to dig in a wee bit. I’ve said that to them and its clear in my mind. At times when we’re creating chances and not taking them.

Institute are bottom of the league table and are seeking their first league win at their sixth time of asking, but will be buoyed by last weekend’s 4-1 Craig Memorial Cup win.

Despite a 2-0 defeat at home to Dergview in their last outing, Lurgan Celtic sit mid-table.
