Donegal captain Michael Murphy says the Ulster champions will concentrate on their own game in Sunday's All-Ireland SFC semi-final.
The Tir Chonail men face the sternest of examinations against defending All-Ireland champions Dublin but Murphy contends that - when it comes to preparations - it makes little difference who is in the opposite corner:
"We concentrate on getting our own house in order, that is getting our levels of fitness and tactical work sorted and then narrowing our focus as the game approaches," the Glenswilly clubman told RTE.
"We stick to our own process as if it were any game. It doesn't matter whether it's Dublin in the All-Ireland semi-final or the first round of the championship against Derry. We won't change anything.
"This Dublin side have come through everything that's been put in front of them with flying colours.
"They played a variety of styles of football in the Leinster championship. They came through with huge winning margins. Against Monaghan the last day, they played a more defensive style at the start of the game.
"Any questions that have been asked of this Dublin team they've ultimately answered them quite emphatically. They've got serious scoring power all over the pitch to show that."
