Just five points separate the top five in the Danske Bank Premiership after the weekend fixtures.

Following Friday night's 3-0 victory for Glentoran against Dungannon, Saturday saw wins for Linfield and Warrenpoint.

Coleraine and Cliftonville both dropped vital points, in a stalemate the Ballycastle Road Showgrounds. 

At the Warden Street Showgrounds, sixth-placed Crusaders crashed to their second Saturday defeat on the bounce, to follow-up last week's dramatic defeat against the Glens at Seaview.

Ulster have beaten Leinster away from home for the first time since 2013.
