All Ireland Football draw: Donegal to face Louth, Dublin draw Cork
Ellen O'Donoghue
The draw for the All-Ireland Football preliminary quarter finals has taken place.
It produced some interesting ties for next weekend.
Donegal will have the home advantage as they take on the Leinster Champions, Louth.
Meanwhile, Down will take on Galway, with Dublin welcoming Cork to Croke Park.
The final tie sees Kerry have the home advantage against Cavan.
When the draw was done, Dublin originally drew Cavan, but that would have left Kerry to face Cork, one of the disallowed draws, so they gave the bowl a shake and picked out the Rebels for Dublin.
The dates and throw-in times will be confirmed by the CCCC by Monday evening.
All four games will be on GAA+.
The draw also took place for the semi-finals of the Tailteann Cup.
It will be Fermanagh taking on Kildare, and Wicklow against Limerick.
Those details are also due to be confirmed today.
So, to recap, in the All-Ireland SFC preliminary quarter-finals it will be:
Donegal vs Louth
Down vs Galway
Dublin vs Cork
Kerry vs Cavan
In the Tailteann Cup semi-finals, it will be:
Fermanagh vs Kildare
Wicklow vs Limerick
