Longford v Cavan at Pearse Park, Longford
There will be a big crowd at this local derby but Cavan under new manager Tommy Carr look a better bet than the home side who are re-organising under Glenn Ryan.
Prediction: Cavan.
Louth v Limerick in Drogheda
This looks like the game of the day in the division. Limerick are a good side but Louth are cock-a-hoop after a great win in the O’Byrne Cup final last Sunday. Home advantage might be key here.
Prediction: Louth.
Tipperary v Down at Semple Stadium
Down look the team to beat in this division and they have a long trip to Tipp to start with but they should be happy on the way home.
Prediction: Down.
