Changes to both sides ahead of throw-in here at the Athletic Grounds from the teams named in the match programme.

Scotstown make two changes and there is one huge boost Kieran Hughes will start in place of full-back Sean Treanor but it is highly unlikely Kieran will play inside.

Francis Maguire replaces Mattie Maguire at right corner forward.

One change on the Kilcoo team and Jack Devlin takes the place of Paul Devlin at left corner forward.

Pre-match favourites Kilcoo were pushed all the way by Crosserlough but they did just enough to claim a 0-15 to 1-10 win in the Ulster Club SFC quarter-final.

Crosserlough were left to rue picking up three black cards as well as a late red card in Newry.

The underdogs got off to a dream start when two of the Smith brothers combined to find the net in the opening five minutes. Peter’s cross-field ball was palmed into the net from close range by James.

The Magpies built steadily as the half went on and led by a point at the break before winning after a tense second half.

Storm Bert has passed and the Athletic Grounds here in County Armagh has been deemed playable for the meeting of two Ulster senior club veterans as Down champions Kilcoo take on Monaghan winners Scotstown.

These two met at the quarter-final stage 12 months ago and the game went down to literally the last kick as Scotstown goalkeeper Rory Beggan nailed a late free to seal a one point win for the Farney men.
