LEINSTER SF FINAL DUBLIN MEATH (RTE2)

Tonight, Croke Park, 7pm

A RIVALRY that once engaged the country, it probably reached its nadir last year when Meath could muster just 0-4 against Dublin in the Leinster final.

They lost by 16 points in the end but having since spent a season in Division One, they should be much better equipped for the Dublin challenge, even if they suffered immediate relegation.

Meath were competitive in all but one of their games and gave

Dublin plenty of it last month too. It shouldn’t be the procession that we have become accustomed to, but Dublin’s scoring power will still keep them well out of danger.

OUR VERDICT: Dublin
