Afternoon all and welcome along to today’s Allianz football league coverage. It’s a bit of a reduced fixture list with plenty matches on last night but here’s what’s in store:

Division 1
Roscommon v Dublin, Dr Hyde Park, 2pm
Kerry v Monaghan, Killarney, 3pm

Division 2
Meath v Kildare, Navan, 2pm
Fermanagh v Clare, Enniskillen, 2pm

Division 3
Sligo v Westmeath, Collooney, 2pm

Division 4
Leitrim v London, Carrick-on-Shannon, 1pm

It’s a potentially momentous day for Leitrim football as they chase promotion from Division 4. Just a point will do them in their game against London. They’ve made a strong start with a 1-3 to 0-3 lead approaching half-time in a game that began at 1pm, Shane Quinn grabbing the vital goal.

Here’s how the action unfolded yesterday and last night across the four divisions.

Division 2
The Cork footballers got a major boost when they defeated Tipperary 1-12 to 0-12 in Thurles, their first success of the league coming in a game where Ruairi Deane netted. Donegal ran out narrow victors by 1-9 o 0-11 against Armagh.

Division 3

Division 4
Derry sealed promotion after seeing off Limerick by 0-13 to 1-5 while Waterford defeated Antrim 1-9 to 1-8 and Wexford ran out 0-12 to 0-9 victors over Wicklow.
