A REPEAT OF the All-Ireland football final in Salthill and the Liam MacCarthy Cup holders entertaining Kilkenny in Ennis.

The 2025 GAA football and hurling leagues commence this weekend with Saturday night’s clash of Galway and Armagh in football live on RTÉ, while Dublin entertain Mayo in Croke Park live on TG4.

Kerry host Donegal in Killarney on Sunday in football, the Clare hurlers welcome Kilkenny to Cusack Park, while the Galway hurlers have home advantage against Tipperary – all three games covered across TG4 platforms.

Saturday night’s all-Ulster clash between Tyrone and Derry can be watched on the BBC iPlayer, while there’s Sigerson and Fitzgibbon Cup action livestreamed this week, along with schools games from around the provinces.

And also as part of a hectic week of action, All-Ireland champions Kerry play Armagh in Tralee in the opening round of the ladies football league on Saturday, a game live on TG4.
