Unsurprisingly, Monaghan have kept faith with the team that defeated Donegal for Saturday's All-Ireland SFC quarter-final against Tyrone.

The Farney defeated the All-Ireland champions by 0-13 to 0-7 to claim their first Anglo-Celt Cup in a quarter of a century, and manager Malachy O'Rourke has given a vote of confidence to the same players for the Croke Park showdown with Mickey Harte's side.

Midfielder Darren Hughes is expected to be given the task of tracking Tyrone dangerman Sean Cavanagh as Monaghan bid to end a four-match losing sequence against the Red Hands going back to 2005.
