Allianz Football League Division One

Kildare v Mayo, Newbridge, 2pm

A game with severe implications for whoever is defeated.

Kildare’s spring so far has been an unfortunate tale of harrowing losses, while Mayo have suffered too.

The last gasp success over Monaghan on the opening weekend offered hope, but the Green and Red have struggled since then.

Mayo will bring a big crowd and a determined collection of footballers to Newbridge. If relegation is to avoided two points need to be pocketed.

KILDARE: Mark Donnellan; Peter Kelly, David Hyland, Mick O'Grady; Cian O'Donoghue, Eoin Doyle, Johnny Byrne; Kevin Feely, Tommy Moolick; Fergal Conway, Niall Kelly, Paul Cribbin; David Slattery, Daniel Flynn, Paddy Brophy.
