CHAMPIONS Meath have named an unchanged line-up for Saturday’s trip to Donegal in Round 2 of the Lidl National League (Letterkenny, 1pm).

Royal County boss Davy Nelson has handed a vote of confidence to the team that suffered defeat to Dublin in last Saturday’s Division 1 opener.

Opponents Donegal have made two changes to the team that lost out to Galway last time out, with Nicole McLaughlin and Shannon McGroddy coming into the starting line-up to replace Katie Dowds and Susanne White.

This fixture is a repeat of the 2022 Lidl NFL Division 1 Final between the counties, who also met in last year's TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship semi-final, with Meath winning on both occasions.

Donegal v Meath, Galway v Dublin and Waterford v Cork are the three Division 1 games available to view live on the LGFA’s live-streaming portal: https://bit.ly/3k9k8CB

Meath (v Donegal): M McGuirk; A Sheridan, M.K. Lynch, K Newe; N Gallogly, S Ennis (capt.), A Cleary; M O’Shaughnessy, A Minogue; M Thynne, M Byrne, C Smyth; A Callan, S Grimes, N O’Sullivan.
