Offaly manager Joe Dooley knows that his side face a tough task against Dublin on Sunday, but the former All-Ireland winner believes that an upset could be on the cards.

The Faithful manager is pinning his hopes on home advantage to play its part on Sunday against a Dublin side that are unbeaten in all competitions so far this year.

Offaly have a number of injury concerns ahead of the match, but Dooley feels that they have strong enough panel to trouble the Dubs at O'Connor Park.

"It's going to be a tough game. They are going very well this year and are unbeaten. They have beaten Tipperary, Galway and Kilkenny and drew with Waterford so they are obviously on a high at the moment," said Dooley.

"They are pretty much at full strength, but having said that it's in Tullamore and we need a win so we will be going all out to try and take the two points."
