Form Guide
Mayo progressed into the second round of the qualifiers after a 1-13 to 0-12 victory over Monaghan at MacHale Park. Cillian O'Connor was in impressive form for James Horan's side, scoring 1-6 against the Ulster outfit.
Mayo had been knocked out of the Connacht SFC by Galway in the quarterfinals after losing 1-14 to 0-16.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the win, James Horan was delighted with his side's performance against a strong Monaghan side.
Delighted with the win to beat a team of Monaghan's calibre,
We got stuck in. It probably wasn't pretty at times. We made mistakes. But overall our work-rate and our effort and honesty was good. We got a couple of breaks.
There could have been a few decisions that could have gone against us. But we got them, and I would say deserved winners at the end.
Mayo are expected to be without Ryan O'Donoghue again this weekend while Tommy Conroy, Brendan Harrison, Jordan Flynn, and Michael Plunkett are all out.
Kildare enjoyed a good Leinster SFC run before losing heavily to Dublin in the final. On their route to the final, the Lilywhites overcame Louth and Westmeath before the 5-17 to 1-15 loss to Dublin.
