GAA on sunday

Down V Armagh

The Armagh boys are the favourites here but I wouldn’t be so sure. I feel this game is being priced up on past fortunes and reputation as opposed to ability. The ulster championship is well open to many teams now and this is as good a chance as Down are going to have. In Benny Coulter they have a goal getting machine and a very potential game winner. Their cover has been blown somewhat with the win over Tyrone but in that game they showed some admirable qualities and a never say die attitude that may see them through once again. It will be tough hard hitting stuff but the value has to be with Down to keep it close and possibly pull off another great win.

PICK
Down +2 ( 2.38 @ boylesports) 4 points

Dublin V Westmeath

Huge expectations on the Dubs here and as usual the media circus is writing up their chances of All-Ireland success at this early stage. However while i feel they will most likely win this game today i dont think it will be easy by any means. Westmeath have adopted a very "northern" style of play and Dublin might struggle to break them down. Their defence is very good and they have absolutely nothing to lose here as everyone has written them off. The handicap is far too big here in my opinion and i think Westmeath should keep this one close enough to make for a nervy finish

PICK
Westmeath + 5 (1.91 @ Boylesports) 4 points
