Cavan stick winning team as London ring the changes in round two Tailteann Cup game in Ruislip this Saturday afternoon

Cavan boss Mickey Graham has named an unchanged team for Cavan’s trip to London in the Tailteann Cup.

A victory for Cavan would also most certainly see them progress to the knock-out and stages and setup a chance to win the group against Offaly.

London lost out to Offaly in round one by nine points. If London taste defeat in Ruislip, their progress to the knock-out round would be in serious trouble.

While, London manager Michael Maher has rung the changes for the Cavan meeting. Daire Rooney comes into the side at right-corner-back. While Chair Healy replaces Aidan McLoughlin in the half-backs.
