Allianz Football League Division Three
Tipperary v Longford
(tomorrow, Semple Stadium, 1pm)
LONGFORD have lost their last two games by a combined three points and they sit joint bottom as a result. Tipp have two wins from three and will be hoping to tighten their grip on a promotion spot.
Odds: H: 2/5 D: 15/2 A: 5/2
Verdict: Tipperary
Louth v Antrim
(tomorrow, Gaelic Grounds, 2pm)
LOUTH are one of only two counties that have won all their games so far - Wexford being the other – and Colin Kelly’s men are fancied to make it four from four. Antrim should be on a high though after their battling win against Sligo last weekend when CJ McGourty grabbed a spectacular winner.
Odds: H: 4/9 D: 15/2 A: 9/4
Verdict: Louth
Armagh v Offaly
(tomorrow, Athletic Grounds, 2pm)
ARMAGH finally got their first win against Longford last week and they should make it two in a row here. Ciaran McKeever and Brendan Donaghy could be late additions to the starting 15. Offaly have lost to Longford and Louth either side of a heavy win over Antrim.
Odds: H: 4/11 D: 8/1 A: 11/4
Verdict: Armagh
Sligo v Laois
(tomorrow, Markievicz Park, 2.30pm)
SLIGO’S good start to the season was tempered by their surprise loss to Antrim last week. Armagh win aside, Laois have looked awful this year and another loss could leave them in a real fight against dropping to the bottom tier.
Odds: H: 1/1 D: 15/2 A: 1/1
Verdict: Sligo
Allianz Football League Division Four
Limerick v London
(tonight, University of Limerick, 6.30pm)
LIMERICK sit rock bottom of Division Four after three losses from three but Billy Lee’s side are expected to get off the mark here. London, with Down man Rory Mason prominent in attack, have already surprised Carlow and will be keen to repeat the trick.
Odds: H: 1/10 D: 14/1 A: 6/1
Verdict: Limerick
Leitrim v Carlow
(tomorrow, Páirc Seán Mac Diarmada, 2pm)
Carlow have really mixed the good and the bad in this campaign, but a win here would ensure that they are genuine promotion contenders. Leitrim suffered a very big loss against Westmeath last weekend. Benny Guckian will be hoping to have Shane Moran and Dean McGovern back from injury for this one.
Odds: H: 1/1 D: 15/2 A: 1/1
Verdict: Carlow
Waterford v Westmeath
(tomorrow, Ardmore, 2pm)
JOHN Heslin weighed in with a mighty 1-11 last weekend against Leitrim and he is the man spear-heading Westmeath’s promotion charge. The Leinster side have won their last two games but they should face a stern task against a Waterford team that also have ambitions of going up. A win for the home side would see them leap-frog their opponents.
Odds: H: 5/2 D: 15/2 A: 2/5
Verdict: Westmeath
Wicklow v Wexford
(tomorrow, Arklow, 2pm)
SEAMUS McEnaney has guided Wexford to three wins from three via margins of four, three and then two points. The Monaghan man would surely like to see the sequence continue with a one-point win, but any sort of victory would leave them in a commanding position. Wicklow recorded their first win last week against London.
Odds: H: 10/3 D: 8/1 A: 3/10
Verdict: Wexford
