Dublin manager Dessie Farrell has made one change to his side for this Sunday’s Leinster senior football final against Louth.

Cormac Costello replaces Ross McGarry in the capital men’s starting line-up from the semi-final win over Kildare two weeks’ ago.

After making his long-awaited return against the Lilywhites, 41-year-old Stephen Cluxton starts again between the posts for the Dubs with Brian Fenton and James McCarthy named at centre-field and Costello joining Con O’Callaghan and Paul Mannion in the full-forward line.

Jack McCaffrey, Dean Rock, Brian Howard and Niall Scully are all named on the bench for the holders.

Throw-in at Croke Park is at 1.45pm.
