After getting their GAA coverage off to a great start these past two weekends
Sky Sports will broadcast their first exclusive gaelic football match on Saturday.
It's been all hurling so far as Kilkenny and Dublin advanced in the Leinster SHC but, this weekend, Alan Mulholland's Galway side will travel to Markievicz Park to take on Pat Flanagan's Sligo in the Connacht SFC semi-final.
Sky presenters Rachel Wyse and Brian Carney will be joined by lead gaelic football analyst Peter Canavan as they run the rule over these two pretenders to Mayo's provincial throne.
The Tribesmen scored a facile 3-17 to 0-7 victory over London in the quarter-final while the Yeats County will be making their championship bow and looking to exorcise the ghosts of last year's shock exit at the hands of the Exiles.
Tune in to
Sky Sports 3 at 6.30pm for all the team news and build-up to the semi-final encounter which has a 7pm throw-in time.
Sky Sports News will show highlights as well as news, interviews and results on their 24-hour news channel, while
skysports.com will have match reports, fixtures and interviews as well as news, blogs, videos and galleries.
