Fixture details will be confirmed on Monday

Kildare and Offaly will meet in a repeat of the Division 3 final, following Monday morning's Tailteann Cup quarter-final draw.

On that occasion, Mickey Harte’s side were victorious at Croke Park, but the Lilywhites will have home advantage on Saturday having topped their group, with the Faithful County comfortably defeating New York in Saturday’s preliminary quarter-final.

One of Limerick or Wexford will qualify for the semi-finals of the competition for the first time ever after they were paired together in what is a repeat of the Division 4 final won by the Treaty County.

Limerick topped their group and will have home advantage on Sunday, with Wexford getting past Antrim to book their last-eight place.

There is another Leinster derby when Oisín McConville’s Wicklow host one of the favourites for the competition in Westmeath on Sunday.

Dermot McCabe’s side had to go through the preliminary quarter-final route after a shock loss to Limerick, but the 3-26 they scored against Laois at the weekend suggests they have been able to quickly get back on track.

The other quarter-final will see Sligo making the short trip to Enniskillen on Saturday to take on Fermanagh.

Tony McEntee’s side were given a firm examination by Carlow at the weekend, but came through it.

Meanwhile, the All-Ireland Hurling Championship preliminary quarter-finals are both scheduled to take place on Saturday.

Laois host Tipperary, with the winners progressing to a quarter-final proper against Galway, while Limerick will face the victors of the clash between Kildare and Dublin, which will be played Saturday in Newbridge ahead of the Tailteann Cup quarter-final.

Both quarter-finals will take place at a neutral venue.
