Kildare boss Cian O'Neill has handed senior championship debuts to Eanna O'Connor and Kevin Flynn for Sunday's Leinster football quarter-final against Carlow.

Moorefield sharpshooter O'Connor - son of former Kerry manager Jack - starts at right corner-forward for the Lilywhites in a front line which includes both Daniel Flynn and Niall Kelly, while Celbridge man Flynn gets the nod at left half-back.

O'Neill's men are looking head for Tullamore looking for their first competitive win in 11-and-a-half months after losing all seven of their games in Division 1 of the National League.

Throw-in at O'Connor Park is at 2.00pm.

Kildare (Leinster SFC v Carlow): Mark Donnellan; Peter Kelly, David Hyland, Mick O'Grady; Johnny Byrne, Eoin Doyle, Kevin Flynn; Kevin Feely, Paul Cribbin; Fergal Conway, Keith Cribbin, Paddy Brophy; Eanna O'Connor, Daniel Flynn, Niall Kelly
