Ollie Lyons has been passed fit to start for Kildare in tomorrow's All-Ireland SFC Qualifier clash against Mayo at MacHale Park, Castlebar.

The Celbridge corner-back faced a fitness test to hold onto the number four jersey after being forced off injured during the 1-22 to 2-14 victory over neighbours Offaly in Newbridge last Saturday.

Manager Cian O'Neill has made two changes with Ciaran Fitzpatrick preferred to Peter Kelly at right corner-back and Eoghan O'Flaherty going in for Adam Tyrrell (concussion protocols) at left half-forward. 

Kildare (SFC v Mayo): Mark Donnellan; Ciaran Fitzpatrick, David Hyland, Ollie Lyons; Johnny Byrne, Eoin Doyle, Emmet Bolton; Tommy Moolick, Kevin Feely; Morgan O'Flaherty, Fergal Conway, Eoin O'Flaherty; Cathal McNally, Niall Kelly, Neil Flynn.

Subs: Shane McNamara, Peter Kelly, Cian O'Donoghue, Fionn Dowling, Alan Smith, Chris Healy, Eamonn Callaghan, Kevin Murnaghan, Padraig O'Neill, Keith Cribbin, Daryl Flynn.
