Mickey Graham: “Donegal have been the most consistent team in Ulster this past 10 years and they can back that up with all the titles they’ve won and finals they’ve got to. So it’s going to be a huge step up for us.

“They were very impressive against Armagh. A lot of people thought going into that game that Armagh would cause an upset but Donegal showed all their experience and were very impressive.

“They have huge quality from the goalkeeper right up to the full-forward line and they have players of equal quality to come in and finish the job of."

Declan Bonner: “This is where you really need to step up to the mark and prove your worth.

"We certainly were not favourites against Armagh but we rose to the challenge.

"Now the test for my players is to do the same against Cavan on Sunday."

Odds

Cavan: 5/1

Donegal: 1/5

Draw: 10/1
