Armagh v Kerry (19:15 BST)
Armagh captain Clodagh McCambridge says her side are approaching this semi-final with "belief" and "confidence" after beating the Kerry twice earlier in the year.
The Orchard County have enjoyed a stellar season, winning the National League title for the first time - sealed with a win over Kerry in the Croke Park final - before reclaiming their Ulster crown with victory over Donegal.
The Ulster county have not contested an All-Ireland final since 2006, but McCambridge says Armagh's league exploits have helped strip away the fear of facing the heavyweights in the latter stages of the championship.
"You're probably seeing the advantage of us having played in Division One this year. We're playing these top teams week in, week out and it stands to us in the championship," the Clann Eireann defender told BBC Sport NI.
"There's less fear going into these matches. We have that belief. We've had that experience of beating these teams. Coming into the championship, those past results don't matter but it's that confidence as a group. It's definitely a benefit."
