At 6pm, Waterford and Clare will seek to book their final place in Dungarvan.

Two All Ireland winning managers go head-to-head in the quarter-finals of the Ulster Football Championship this evening.

It’s a repeat of last year’s decider with Sligo playing host to defending champions Galway from 3.30pm.

Soccer

FA Cup

Erling Haaland is a doubt for Manchester City’s FA Cup semi-final with in-form Chelsea at Wembley this afternoon, because of a muscular issue.

Haaland was forced off in extra-time of that quarter-final second leg.

Kick off in London is at 5:15pm

The bottom two clash at Bramall Lane with Sheffield United hosting Burnley.
