Derry manager Mickey Harte says Sunday's Allianz Football League Division One final against Dublin gives his squad the opportunity to test themselves against the best.

The Oak Leafers topped Division One with six wins and one defeat, that loss coming against the Dubs.

"It's always good to be in a final, a big final at Croke Park, and another chance to play the Dubs," said Harte.

"It's a big ask but it's good to be there."

Despite last week's thrashing of Tyrone to punch their ticket to today's final, Dublin manager Dessie Farrell has made two changes from last week as John Small and Séan Bugler replace Lorcan O'Dell and Daire Newcombe.

Derry: O Lynch; C McCluskey, C McKaigue, D Baker; C Doherty, E McEvoy, P McGrogan; C Glass, B Rogers; E Doherty, C McFaul, P Cassidy; N Loughlin, S McGuigan, L Murray.

Dublin: E Comerford; S MacMahon, C Murphy, E Murchan; B Howard, J Small, S Bugler; B Fenton, T Lahiff; R McGarry, K McGinnis, C Kilkenny; C Basquel, C O'Callaghan, N Scully
