Coleraine are the holders since 2020, with last season's competition having been cancelled amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Cliftonville last won it in the 2015/16 season when they beat Ards in the final - their fourth successive success in the competition.
The Reds have been flying this season, and remain bang in the title race and into the semi-finals of the Irish Cup.
But fans want to turn that form into trophies - and they have a big chance this afternoon.
Many gathered outside Solitude to give McLaughlin and his players a big send-off, lighting flares and cheering on the team as they boarded their bus for Windsor.
Check out the footage at the top of this story, captured by Cliftonville fan and Belfast boxer Owen O'Neill.
