Dublin and Mayo, who have both lost big name players ahead of the new season, will get their campaign underway in Croke Park. Winners of Division One last season Derry take on Tyrone in Omagh.

In the always important Division Two, Roscommon will be aiming for immediate promotion, as they get their season underway against Down.

Louth will be hoping to continue their progress when they face Westmeath, while Cork take on Meath.

In hurling, All-Ireland champions Clare host Kilkenny in the game of the weekend, while runners up Cork are away to Wexford.
