Getting giddy for this, should be an epic! Some amazing battles in store between the key players, managers and various backroom teams. Undoubtedly it will come down to the smallest of margins again. Good luck to both camps!ππ#DubvKerry #GAA #History #Sam pic.twitter.com/rzIbsolFXp

Match Up todays are going to be fascinating. The team that can exploit these and create mismatches best around the field will go along way.
