Derry All-Stars Conor Glass and Chrissy McKaigue are in a race to be fit for Saturday week’s Ulster SFC quarter-final against Fermanagh.

Midfielder Glass came off with a hamstring injury during last Sunday’s Allianz Football League Division 2 final defeat to Dublin, while defender McKaigue didn’t feature due to a similar injury.

"Conor nipped his hamstring. It's minor, but with the Championship only 13 days away, you don't take chances. Same with Chrissy, he could have played if this was a Championship game,” Derry manager Rory Gallagher told reporters afterwards.

On the plus side, Glen attacker Ciaran McFaul has returned to the panel after spending the past year in the US.
