Roscommon, Longford and Leitrim hurlers all in Allianz hurling league action

Roscommon v Warwickshire - Kiltoom - Sunday 27 February - 1pm

Roscommon have started this campaign with two impressive performances.

A fight back draw with Tyrone in round one and a good 13 point win over Louth away.

On the other hand Warwickshire stand with two defeat and a score difference of minus 35.

The Rossies look revitalised under Francis O’Halloran. The year 2021 which record all defeats seems well behind them. A victory on Sunday in Kiltoom will set Roscommon up for a tilt at the final.

This one should be a win for Roscommon, but Warwickshire will not be a side looking to lay down.

Leitrim v Cavan - Abbotstown GAA CoE - Saturday February 26 - 3pm

These sides meet in Abbotstown Dublin on Saturday and it looks very much like a one way affair.

Leitrim opened their campaign with a 13-point victory over Lancashire and will be expected to continue their winning ways.

Cavan play their third game of the competition, their last being an 11 point defeat to the English opposition. The 2021 Lory Meagher cup finalists opened their campaign with defeat to Fermangh again by 11 points.

A win for Leitrim will see them edge toward claiming a division 3B final place. A win for Cavan would be the shock of the weekend.

Lancashire v Longford - Abbotstown GAA CoE - Sunday February 27 - 1pm

Lancashire play their second home game of the campaign in Abbotstown but enter this one after an 11 point win over Cavan last time out.

Longford opened their campaign with a one point defeat to Fermanagh in Glennon Brothers Pearse Park. Fermanagh failing to score in the second-half.

This will be a challenge for both sides. Longford’s decision to begin pre-season training late told last time out. An extra week’s training should see some improvement.

Longford would expect a win, but Lancashire will be looking to make an impact with a victory.
