  • Published

Both Irish Cup semi-finals will be live on the BBC iPlayer and BBC Sport website as holders Dungannon Swifts face Cliftonville and Larne take on Coleraine.

On Friday, 3 April (19:45 BST) it is a repeat of last year's final with defending champions Dungannon playing Cliftonville as both sides aim to make back-to-back finals.

Irish Premiership leaders Larne face Coleraine on Saturday, 4 April (15:00 BST) for the second spot in the 2 May showpiece.

Both games will be played at Windsor Park.

Larne were the first team to book their spot in the last four with a penalty shootout victory over Glentoran last week.

Rodney McAree's Swifts defeated Championship outfit H&W Welders as 2024 winners Cliftonville overcame Loughgall to remain on track for a third successive final appearance.

In the other quarter-final, Coleraine beat Limavady United thanks to goals from Joel Cooper and Matthew Shevlin.
