Laois v Derry, O’Moore Park
Sunday (2.30pm)
Armagh v Galway, Athletic Grounds
Having won all four games so far (Cavan, Galway, Laois, Derry), Tyrone are well on their way to returning to Allianz Football League Division 1 at the first attempt, having already opened up a three-point lead on second-laced Galway.
Tyrone head for Navan on Sunday for what will be their first Allianz Football League clash with Meath since 2012 when they won by 1-12 to 0-5 (Allianz Football League Division 2). Meath rallied to take a point off Galway last Sunday but are still third from bottom on three points.
Galway head for Armagh, whom they beat in last year’s All-Ireland qualifiers (1-12 to 0-12) and in the 2014 Allianz Football League Division 2 clash (2-14 to 1-13). Armagh are bottom on the table after three defeats and have the second worst defensive record in the group behind Laois.
The Midlanders, who have also lost three of four games, host Derry who have lost their last two. The sides last met in the Allianz Football League in 2013 when Derry won by 1-17 to 2-11.
Fermanagh are doing well after being promoted from Allianz Football League Division 3, having won two and lost two of four games. They host Cavan, who are also on four points. Terry Hyland’s men were outstanding against Armagh last weekend, running in 3-18 in a 17-point win.
