Tyrone manager Mickey Harte has opted to leave All-Star defender Padraig Hampsey on the bench for Sunday's Allianz FL clash with Roscommon.

Hampsey had been in contention to start after making his first appearance of the season following a break with injury against Mayo last weekend, but the Coalisland man-marker has to make do with a place among the substitutes for the trip to Dr Hyde Park.

The Red Hands are still searching for their first points of the Division 1 campaign after suffering two defeats in as many outings which leaves them rooted to the bottom of the table with a score difference of -13.

Tyrone (Allianz FL v Roscommon): Niall Morgan; Michael McKernan, Ronan McNamee, Hugh Pat McGeary; Tiernan McCann, Ruairi Brennan, Peter Harte; Brian Kennedy, Declan McClure; Mattie Donnelly, Niall Sludden, Kieran McGeary; Darren McCurry, Cathal McShane, Lee Brennan.
