Derry take on Kerry this lunchtime in the second game of this season’s National Football League Division One campaign (throw-in 1.30pm).
Derry manager Brian McIver.
The game has been switched to Killarney after the original venue in Tralee was declared unplayable during the week.
Oak Leaf manager, Brian McIver, goes into the game in confident mood after his side fought back to earn a draw against Tyrone in Celtic Park last week, a game in which Derry were trailing by seven points at one stage in the second half.
