JIM GAVIN HAS selected a strong starting XV to take on Tyrone as Dublin prepare to make the trip to Healy Park for the first time in four years (Throw-in 7pm).
The All-Ireland champions got their Allianz National Football League campaign off to a winning start with a seven point victory against Kildare at Croke Park seven days ago.
Boss Gavin has picked the exact same team for Saturday evening’s visit to Omagh, aiming to come away with a win against a Tyrone side which fell short against Galway last weekend.
They face Mickey Harte’s side on the road for the first time since 2014, a game which saw a 1-15 to 3-10 win for Dublin, setting the tone for a 10th successful league title campaign.
Jonny Cooper was a late switch in last Saturday’s 2-17 to 2-10 win against the Lilywhites. The Na Fianna defender retains his place at half-back ahead of Eric Lowndes this evening.
