Paul Grimley feels Armagh will have their work cut out if they're to beat Roscommon in Hyde Park this weekend.

The Orchard County were knocked out of the 2012 championship by the Rossies at 'The Hyde' and Grimley is keen to ensure that his side doesn't suffer the same fate on Saturday evening.

"Hyde Park is never an easy venue to go to," the Armagh manager notes in the Belfast Telegraph.

"Not too many teams relish playing there and after the manner in which they overcame Cavan last weekend, the Roscommon team can justifiably expect that their fans will be out in force to see them play against us.

"They will have the bit between their teeth and we know that while they have good individual players they also have adopted a system of play with which they are comfortable as they showed in particular when they came so close to upsetting the Connacht applecart against Mayo."
