Kerry vs Donegal final, according to ChatGPT:

Let's look at each All-Ireland semi-final matchup and make reasoned predictions based on form, matchups, and recent history.


---------------

Kerry vs Tyrone

Saturday, July 12 - Croke Park

Form & History

• Kerry scored a stunning 0-32 against Armagh in the quarter-final - an incredible attacking display.

• Tyrone took down Dublin by 0-23 to 0-16, showcasing elite defensive organisation and fitness.

In recent championship meetings, Tyrone beat Kerry in the 2021 semi-final in extra-time, but Kerry got revenge in 2022 and 2023.


Key Factors

• Kerry's forwards (Seán O'Shea, Paudie Clifford, David Clifford) are all firing.

• Tyrone's defence is resilient, but has at times struggled with fast-moving forward lines.

• Midfield battle will be crucial: Kerry's dominance in possession often leads to long scoring bursts.


Prediction: Kerry to win by 4-6 points

Kerry look too balanced, ruthless in attack, and more experienced at this stage. Tyrone will put up a fight, but Kerry's depth and clinical edge should win out.


---------------

Donegal vs Meath

Sunday, July 13 - Croke Park

Form & History

• Donegal have grown stronger throughout the championship and were excellent in their win over Monaghan.

• Meath edged Galway in a tight quarter-final and have been one of 2025's surprise packages.

These teams haven't met in a major knockout tie in years, but Donegal has had a more stable setup in recent seasons.


Key Factors

• Donegal's running game is effective at breaking defensive lines and drawing frees.

• Meath's youth and confidence have served them well, especially in tight finishes.

Experience at this level favours Donegal.


Prediction: Donegal to win by 2-4 points

Meath will make it close, especially if they hit early goals, but Donegal's cohesion, pace, and sharper finishing should carry them through to the final.


---------------

Summary of Predictions

Match Predicted Winner Margin

Kerry vs Tyrone Kerry 4-6 points
Donegal vs Meath Donegal 2-4 points


That would set up a Kerry vs Donegal final - a rematch of their 2014 final encounter.
