O'Brien set to start for Kerry in All-Ireland SFC final against Dubs

Dublin's Jack McCaffrey and Stephen O'Brien of Kerry

Kerry manager Jack O’Connor has made one change to his starting line-up for Sunday’s All-Ireland senior football championship final against Dublin.

After his impact off the bench against Derry earlier this month, Stephen O’Brien is named to start at left half-forward with Adrian Spillane dropping to the bench.

Tony Brosnan’s absence due to a respiratory issue sees Killian Spillane, who had been sidelined with an ankle problem, named on the Kingdom’s bench instead of the Dr Crokes forward.

Elsewhere, it stays the same for the defending champions, with Diarmuid O'Connor and Jack Barry starting at centre-field and David Clifford captaining the side from full-forward.

Throw-in at Croke Park is at 3.30pm.

Kerry (All-Ireland SFC final v Dublin): Shane Ryan; Graham O'Sullivan, Jason Foley, Tom O'Sullivan; Paul Murphy, Tadhg Morley, Gavin White; Diarmuid O'Connor, Jack Barry; Dara Moynihan, Seán O'Shea, Stephen O'Brien; Paudie Clifford, David Clifford, Paul Geaney.

Subs: Shane Murphy (GK), Adrian Spillane, Brian Ó Beaglaoich, Mike Breen, Barry Dan O'Sullivan, Ruairí Murphy, Micheál Burns, Killian Spillane, Dylan Casey, Donal O'Sullivan, Ronan Buckley.
