Allianz Hurling League Division 2B Final
Derry v Tyrone, Derry Centre of Excellence, Owenbeg, 5.30pm
During the group phase Derry set a high standard in Division 2B, collecting nine points from a possible 10.
Last month Derry defeated Tyrone 2-20 to 0-16 with a brilliant second half goal from Corey O'Reilly decorating the win.
Cormac O'Doherty and Ruairí Ó Mianain are others making important contributions for Johnny McGarvey's improving team.
Tyrone enjoyed an encouraging 5-9 to 3-14 victory over Donegal at the semi-final stage.
Cormac Munroe, Joe McToal, Seán Óg Grogan, Lorcan Devlin, and Tiernan Morgan netted goals for Tyrone, who will need a similarly defiant display against Derry.

Allianz Hurling League Division 2A Final
Carlow v Laois, Netwatch Cullen Park, 3pm
This should be an interesting game between two evenly matched teams.
Both counties finished the group stages with eight points, but Carlow's 1-23 to 0-21 success over Laois ensured they topped the table.
That game last month featured dynamic displays from Marty Kavanagh, Chris Nolan, and John Michael Nolan, who scored heavily for Carlow.
Laois, though, have recovered well since that setback as shown by the 1-24 to 0-13 semi-final win over Down.
Jer Quinlan has impressed in the league, while Ross King and Aaron Dunphy are others delivering for Laois.

Mayo v Sligo, Hastings Insurance MacHale Park, 2pm
Significant hurling development has taken place in both counties during the past decade.
Mayo won all five group games under the guidance of Ray Larkin and Brian Finn, who have generated momentum with a talented team.
Sligo fended off a spirited Cavan challenge at the semi-final stage with Gerard O'Kelly-Lynch's 0-12 haul crucial.
Thomas Cawley and Finnian Cawley also struck three points from play each for Sligo, who will be eager to impress in Castlebar.
Eoin Delaney and Joe Burke netted goals in Mayo's 2-12 to 0-14 victory over Sligo earlier this month, while Cormac Philips was another key figure in that triumph.

Fermanagh v Warwickshire, Brewster Park, 2pm
Warwickshire have improved as the competition has progressed so Fermanagh will be aware of the threat the visitors carry.
Saturday's semi-final win for Warwickshire over Longford included seven points from Kevin McKernan, while former Galway footballer Eamonn Brannigan also featured.
Fermanagh overcame Longford in their last group match with Danny Teague still an influential figure.
Luca McCusker and Brian Teehan have also made key contributions for Fermanagh.
