Corofin manager Kevin O'Brien is wary of the threat posed by Mountbellew/Moylough in Sunday's county SFC final.

The sides meet in this year's decider in a repeat of the 2015 clash which Corofin won en route to a four-in-a-row, which they hope to make five this weekend.

O'Brien feels on form alone, their opponents should be favourites for the final, but many will put that down to mind games on the Corofin manager's behalf, although that is something he strongly denies.

"If you are to base it on form, Mountbellew/Moylough will go into this game as favourites. I am not sure with how that lies but a lot of people would probably say we are favourites on what we have done in the past," O'Brien told the Connacht Tribune.

"However, if you take the results this year and how the championship has gone, you would have to say Mountbellew/Moylough go into this game as favourites. They have had a fantastic summer and they have put up some big scores."
