Mayo manager Kevin McStay has made one change to his side as they travel to the Walled City to face Derry.
Mayo showed a fine fighting spirit to triumph over Kerry last time out, and faith has been kept in the majority of that side for this Sunday’s tie.

Davitt Neary replaces Jack Carney in the forward line. The rest of the starting fifteen remains unchanged.
Neary has had a promising season so far, scoring 1-5 in his last three games, and returns to the side following his absence in the Kerry clash.
Derry have had a poor start to 2025, and should they lose this one, they will face the drop into Division Two.
The throw-in at Celtic Park on Sunday, March 16, is at 1.30 pm. We'll be on hand with reports plus reactions here.
Mayo: C Reape; J Coyne, D McHugh, E Hession; S Callinan, D McBrien, F Kelly; S Coen, M Ruane; D Neary, D McHale, J Flynn; A O’Shea, F Irwin, R O'Donoghue.
