Mayo face old rivals Galway in final round of the All-Ireland qualifiers
Mayo will face old rivals Galway in the final round of the All-Ireland qualifiers.
This morning's draw saw the two Connaught teams paired together for a mouthwatering clash at a neutral venue next weekend.
For Mayo to reach the Super 8s they will have to do something that has eluded them for the past number of years – beat Galway in the championship.
The incentive is huge, as the winners will be guaranteed three more games in a Super 8 group featuring Donegal, Kerry and the winners of Meath v Clare, another final round qualifier game next weekend.
The other qualifier games drawn this morning were Cork v Laois and Cavan v Tyrone. The winners of those games will be in the Super 8 group containing Dublin and Roscommon, the Leinster and Connaught champions respectively.
Venues and times for next weekend's qualifiers will be announced in due course.
