Cavan manager Terry Hyland is well used to preparing his charges to face Roscommon.

Yesterday morning's Round Two SF Qualifier draw has paired the Breffni County and the Rossies together for what will be their fifth competitive meeting inside two seasons.

"We have to play Roscommon at least twice every year - we played them three times last year," Hyland notes in The Irish Daily Star.

"Roscommon came up here last year and beat us. Sligo turned Roscommon over and Sligo seemed to be full value for their win. Sligo, in fairness, always do pretty well at home and they've made Markievicz Park a bit of a fortress for league matches and that."
