🏆 Monaghan v Donegal Prediction
This promises to be a thrilling encounter, given the strong form both sides have shown this season. Each team has adapted impressively to the new rules and has consistently posted high scores. When they clashed earlier in the year in the Ulster quarter-final, Donegal edged a high-scoring battle by just two points, winning on a scoreline of 0-23 to 0-21. A similarly close affair is expected this time around. Both teams are performing at a high level, with Donegal particularly looking like serious contenders for the All-Ireland title in 2025. Our prediction? A tight but decisive Donegal win.
