ALLIANZ FOOTBALL LEAGUE DIVISION 1: FOUR PRE-SEASON FAVOURITES REACH SEMI-FINALS
It’s Kerry v Tyrone and Dublin v Donegal in the semi-finals while the relegation play-offs feature Galway v Monaghan and Roscommon v Armagh. Kerry topped the southern group on scoring difference ahead of Dublin after both finished on five points while Donegal headed the northern section with a win and two draws, leaving them a point ahead of Tyrone and Armagh. Tyrone earned the semi-final slot, thanks to their win over Armagh in the head-to-head contest.
Roscommon and Armagh were promoted from Division 2 at the end of last seasons but one of them will drop back down after their relegation clash. Galway were last in Division 2 in 2017 while Monaghan haven’t been out of Division 1 since 2014.
