Cavan manager Mattie McGleenan has named four debutants in his team for Sunday's Ulster senior football championship opener against Donegal in Ballybofey.

Bryan Magee debuts at midfield alongside Killian Clarke while Oisin Kiernan and Enda Flanagan also make their senior championship bows in a half-forward line which is entirely made up of Castlerahan men.

Conor Bradley is the last debutant, with the Ramor United man being named at left corner-forward after impressing in last month's Division 2 final defeat to Roscommon at Croke Park.

Elsewhere, Gearoid McKiernan is named at full-forward with Martin Reilly, Ciaran Brady and Conor Moynagh making up the half-back line while captain Dara McVeety misses out on the starting 15 as a result of the hamstring injury he sustained against the Rossies.

However, the Crosserlough man is expected to be named among the substitutes for the trip to MacCumhaill Park, where throw-in is at 4pm.

Cavan (Ulster SFC v Donegal): Raymond Galligan; Jason McLoughlin, Padraig Faulkner, Niall Murray, Martin Reilly, Ciaran Brady, Conor Moynagh, Killian Clarke, Bryan Magee; Cian Mackey, Oisin Kiernan, Enda Flanagan; Caoimhin O'Reilly, Gearoid McKiernan, Conor Bradley
