The winners of that game will play a semi-final against Roscommon the following Saturday, while there will be Friday night action for the other semi-final as Mayo meet Galway. The final is down for Friday 14 January.
All games will be live-streamed with counties having 26-player panels and all players allowed see action.
There will be two extra-time periods of 10 minutes each if the teams finish level after normal time and then a Golden Score to decide the result after that if necessary.
