Cavan are unchanged for Sunday's Bank of Ireland Ulster Senior Football Championship semi-final clash against Tyrone in Clones.

Anthony Forde and Seanie Johnston are both back in contention after lengthy injury lay-offs, however, manager Eamon Coleman has chosen not to tinker with the XV that won their replayed Antrim encounter, as the pair instead feature on the substitutes' bench.

Meanwhile, Paul Bradley could miss Derry's Ulster semi-final on June 26. Bradley picked up an injury in a weekend club game.

The Oak Leafers, though, who will face the winners of the replayed Donegal v Armagh clash, are expected to have elbow injury victim Johnny McBride available.

McBride sustained in the knock in the victory over Monaghan, but is responding well to treatment.

Cavan XV v Tyrone: J Reilly; M Hannon, D Rabbitt, K Fannin; P Brady, Peter Reilly, Pauric Reilly; P McKenna, N Walsh; M Cahill, M McKeever, F O'Reilly; J O'Reilly, D McCabe, L Reilly.
