Conor Mortimer is hoping home advantage will help Mayo get their first Allianz Football League points on the board against Tyrone on Sunday.

The former Mayo sharpshooter feels the Hastings Insurance MacHale Park encounter is a 'must-win' after defeats to Dublin and Galway in their previous two games.

“While it is disappointing to lose a couple of games, there is a little bit of pressure on in that we probably need to beat Tyrone," Mortimer told the media at an Electric Ireland event this week.

"You don't want to be losing three and then having to win your last maybe four games. That is undue pressure.

“This game in Castlebar, we need to start making home advantage count. What was most worrying, it wasn't the defeat against Galway, it was the manner of the defeat.”
