Donegal v Monaghan throw-in time, date, TV channel information, betting odds and more

Declan Bonner's Donegal will attempt to keep pace in their bid for league honours as they host Monaghan this weekend.

The Tir Chonaill men sit two points behind league leaders Kerry and Mayo - who meet on Saturday night - and know that they can be in a strong position to qualify with a win over the Farney men.

But they host a Monaghan side fighting for their Division One status, and with just two points from their opening four games, are reaching must-win territory.

Here's what you need to know:

Date

The game will be played on Sunday, March 13.

Venue

MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey hosts the clash.

Throw-in time

1.45 pm.

TV channel information

TG4.

Quotes corner

Donegal manager Declan Bonner on public criticism: “The only people I’m concerned about are the players on the pitch.

"We try and shield them from all that but there’s all the social media, it’s not easy. But we sat them down in the early part of the week and explained to them that this is part of it and you’ve got to move on. It’s a learning curve.

"This is Division One and you’ve got to be at it every evening that you go out because you will get punished.

“The League, to me, I’ve been quite happy with the performances.

“In patches we’ve been good and other patches we haven’t but we’re bringing in new lads – we’ve used 29 players in the first four League games and it’s all part of the learning process for a lot of these young lads, but no better place to learn than MacCumhaill Park against the All-Ireland champions.”

Betting odds

Donegal - 4/7
