What every county needs ahead of the final round of the National Football League

Ahead of the final round of action in the National football leagues, nearly every county has something to play for.

After weekends of thrilling action, promotion, finals, relegation, and places in the All-Ireland championship are all on the line.

Here is what every county needs ahead of this weekend.

The top of Division One is Kerry and Donegal on nine points each.

If both counties avoid defeat in their games, they will face each other in the final in Croke Park at the end of the month.

Kerry take on Armagh, while Donegal face already relegated Monaghan.

However, if either team were to slip up, the winner of Mayo and Roscommon would replace them in the final.

At the other end of the table, Galway play Dublin in a winner-takes-all game. A point for Galway will keep them up, while Dublin needs to better Armagh's result against Kerry by four points.

Heading into this weekend, Cork and Meath lead the promotion charge and will face each other in the final with a point in their games.

Cork take on Tyrone, while Meath face already relegated Offaly.

If Cork or Meath were to lose, Louth and Derry would be hoping to take full advantage.

Derry have to beat Cavan and hope their superior score difference is a factor on 10 points, or it's just them and Cork on 10 points.

Louth, meanwhile, must defeat Kildare and needs one of Cork or Meath to drop points. They have the head-to-head advantage on Derry but not against Cork and Meath.

At the other end of the table, Tyrone need to avoid defeat to secure their Division Two success, but a win will be priority to secure their All-Ireland place.

Kildare's All-Ireland place is secured due to their Tailteann Cup victory last season, and will stay in Division Two if they defeat Louth in Newbridge
