Clare v Roscommon.
Clare v Roscommon is one of four All-Ireland football qualifiers that will be broadcast live on TV this weekend, as we move towards the business end of the Championship.
Having reached the Connacht Final, where they were beaten by Galway, Roscommon enter the qualifying stage at the second round, along with fellow provincial runners-up Limerick, Kildare and Donegal.
Clare, on the other hand, were in action over the Bank Holiday weekend, as they defeated Meath in the first round of qualifiers by a score of 1-11 to 1-09.

How is the form of both counties?
Roscommon defeated Sligo in the Connacht semi-final by a score of 0-23 to 0-11, before losing out to Galway in the final, by 2-19 to 2-16.
Clare fell at the first hurdle in Munster, by virtue of an historic penalty shoot-out loss to Limerick on April 30th. They then had to wait until last Saturday to face a test with Meath, which they passed.
What is at stake?
The winners of Clare v Roscommon, and the other three round two qualifiers, will move into the All-Ireland quarter-finals, where provincial champions Dublin, Kerry, Derry and Galway lie in wait.
After Saturday’s aforementioned Croke Park double-header, Sunday will see Limerick come up against Cork, before Armagh take on Donegal. Both of those matches will be broadcast live on RTE 2.
It has been confirmed that our senior footballers will face Clare in Croke Park on Saturday at 3.45pm.
