Roscommon's bid to remain in this year's All-Ireland SFC will see them take on Monaghan in Clones on Saturday week, the GAA has confirmed.

Fixtures for Rounds 2A and 2B were confirmed on Wednesday afternoon, and will see Mark Dowd's side take on the defeated Ulster finalists on Saturday, June 13th, in St. Tiernach's Park at 4.30 p.m..

The game will be broadcast on GAA+.

It's the proverbial "cup final" for both teams as the loser will be dumped out of the championship, while the winner will play a Round 2A loser a week later in a bid to reach the All-Ireland quarter-finals.

Both Galway and Mayo will be in action on Sunday, June 14th, with Galway entertaining Leinster champions Westmeath at Pearse Stadium, Salthill, at 2 p.m., while Mayo's trip to Omagh to take on Tyrone at 3.30 p.m. will be live on RTÉ.
