The 2018 Dr McKenna Cup final has been switched from Celtic Park to the Athletic Grounds in Armagh.

The rescheduled clash of Tyrone and Donegal will still throw in at 6pm on Saturday evening. The Red Hands are bidding for a seventh successive title, while Donegal are aiming to collect the subsidiary cup for the first time since 2010.

The final was meant to be played over the penultimate weekend of January but had to be pushed back when a number of postponements due to wintry weather meant that the semi-final between Donegal and Armagh only took place that Saturday, with the national football league commencing the following weekend.

The weather hasn't improved much in the meantime…
