Louth have named an unchanged side for their first Leinster final since 1960, while Meath have recalled veteran Nigel Crawford for Sunday’s encounter at Croke Park.
The Wee County will be looking to their star midfielders Brian White and Paddy Keenan to continue their scoring form and end Louth’s 53 year wait for a provincial title.
Crawford, the Meath captain, has recovered from a back injury and will make his first start for the Royals since their first round clash against Offaly.
Goalkeeper Brendan Murphy has been picked ahead of Paddy O’Rourke, who missed Meath’s clash with Dublin due to suspension.
Meath have won eight of their last nine meetings against the Wee County.
The game will throw in at 2pm in Croke Park on Sunday.
