Missing Lacey only change for Donegal ahead of Croke Park clash with Galway

Adrian Varley gets the nod at corner-forward for Galway.

Updated Friday 19.00

DONEGAL AND GALWAY have made one change apiece to their starting line-ups ahead of tomorrow’s All-Ireland Senior Football Championship qualifier in Croke Park (18.00).

Adrian Varley is selected at right corner-forward in the only change to the Tribe side that saw off Derry at the last stage. Peadar Óg Ó Gríofa drops out of the team.

Rory Gallagher’s men will hope to bounce back after defeat to Monaghan without the presence of Karl Lacey at centre back.

The inspirational 30-year-old suffered a knee injury in Clones and so Naomh Conaill’s Anthony Thompson comes in to wear the number six jersey in his absence.
