Rico Kelly is confident that Crossmaglen can secure their 11th Ulster club football title this afternoon.

The busy attacker says the perennial Armagh champions have left no stone unturned ahead of the Athletic Grounds final against Scotstown.

"John 'Mac' (Entee) and Oisin (McConville) have stepped it up this year and gone into detail about other teams and about what we need to do," he told the Irish News.

"We know their weaknesses and we know their strengths so it'll be an interesting battle on the day.

"We'd be confident of the win, but we wouldn't be too cocky about it. We know our ability and what we can do on the day so we're looking forward to it."

Kelly is determined to get his hands on an Ulster medal after being in Australia for their last success in 2012.

"I'm getting better and getting more confident in every game. Being away for a couple of years, I missed it and I'm starting to really enjoy it. I'm getting the buzz back for the Ulster final - it's going to be a big day for us."
