After nearly a year out with injury, David Kelly is set to make his inter-county return as Sligo take on Cavan in the Allianz League Division 3 on Saturday.

The Tubbercurry player featured for DCU in their Sigerson Cup success last weekend and Yeats county boss Kevin Walsh is expected to give the live-wire forward action at Breffni Park.

Sligo impressed when seeing off Wexford in their last league match, while Cavan have yet to register a point in this year's campaign.

Walsh, however, is expecting the Breffni county to provide a stern test on Saturday and said: "Cavan lost their first two games but they played well by all accounts. Now they are at home again and we will be desperate for a win.

"The break in the league has given them time to regroup, so they will definitely be a serious test for us."
