Three of the four venues for this year’s National Football League semi-finals have been announced by the GAC, with only the Division 2 clash between Meath and Kerry outstanding.

In Division 1 Cavan, making their first appearance in the deciders since the late 1980s, must make the short trip to Mullingar to face 1A table-toppers Roscommon.

The Connacht side will be bidding to go one better than last year when they were beaten at the semi-final stage.

Division 1B winners, Mayo, will meet Tyrone in Enniskillen.

In Division 2, Armagh will take on Laois in Longford. But details of the venue for Dublin’s showdown with Kerry - a re-match of last year’s extraordinary All-Ireland when Meath ran out 15-point winners - will not be made available until next week.

All matches will take place on Sunday, April 14th.
