Tyrone boss Mickey Harte has made one alteration to his team for Saturday's All-Ireland SFC qualifier with Sligo.

Trillick club man Rory Brennan comes in at left corner-back in place of Cathal McCarron, who is said to be unavailable this weekend, after having played the full 70 minutes in the Red Hands' 12-point defeat of Tipperary two weeks ago.

Once again, Sean Cavanagh is named at full-forward and will make his 77th championship appearance for his county, while his brother Colm lines out at centre-field alongside Matthew Donnelly.

Throw-in on Saturday at Croke Park is at 4pm.

Tyrone (SFC v Sligo): N Morgan; A McCrory, R McNamee, R Brennan; R McNabb, J McMahon, P Harte; C Cavanagh, M Donnelly; T McCann, M Bradley, C Meyler; D McCurry, S Cavanagh, C McAliskey.
