Easkey v Calry/St.Joseph's
Easkey have been in impressive form so far whilst the opposite has been the case for Calry. How up for the game on Sunday will the men from the west be with the tough games the evening before. Calry could do with the win also but with the game in Easkey which is tough at the best of times it is expected there will be fireworks. Calry might have a clear weekend but this Easkey team are expected to pull through

Easkey

Western Gaels v Tourlestrane
A game that many would have seen at the start of the championship as a game for the bottom two. Gaels showed plenty of fight in the previous round which suggests that they expect to break into the top 4. Coolera though were missing a number of players. Tourlestrane having to travel to Quigabar makes it a bit more difficult for the South Sligo team and expecting the home team to pull this one off

Gaels

Coolera/Strandhill v Naomh Eoin
Naomh Eoin look like a team who are determined to make up for their final loss last year so far in the championship as was evidenced in their last round win over Calry. Coolera struggled for large parts of the game against Western Gaels and the loss of Gary Cadden can't be over-estimated. Expecting the town side to travel out to Ransboro and take the points back with them.
