Match preview

Offaly manager John Maughan was keen for the Division 3 final to go ahead at Croke Park, despite its close proximity to their Leinster championship opener with Louth next weekend, but he might come to rue that decision as Derry look a more complete outfit and are fancied to win comfortably.

Both sides arrive with flawless records - four wins from four - but Derry's 5-13 to 0-9 success over Fermanagh was the best performance from either team and their two-point win over Cavan marks them out as the top dogs in the division.

Shane McGuigan has been one of the stars of the league with his flair and flamboyancy up front lighting up the last few months.

He kicked six points in Derry's semi-final win over Limerick but also hit the post twice and he could tear apart this Offaly defence at Croke Park.

Derry are fancied to defy a two-point handicap at a shade of odds-against, while the 6-4 on offer about Rory Gallagher's charges scoring two or more goals makes plenty of appeal as well.
