Three changes to Donegal team that face Cavan on Sunday

Peadar Mogan of Donegal during the All-Ireland SFC round-robin round two tie away to Cork last year

Shaun Patton, Peadar Mogan and Patrick McBrearty are all named on the Donegal starting XV as they take on Cavan in round two of the All-Ireland SFC round-robin stage on Sunday, 2pm.

Gavin Mulreany kept goal last week as Donegal went down 2-17 to 0-20 against Tyrone in Ballybofey, with Patton having not returned from an ankle injury picked up in the Ulster SFC win over Armagh. Donegal may wait until last moment on the Patton decision.

Mogan was among the substitutes but comes in for Caolan McGonagle and captain Patrick McBrearty looks as though he will be in from the off in place of Conor O'Donnell.

Mark Curran and Domhnall Mac Giolla Bhríde have been listed among the substitutes against a Cavan side who beat Mayo 1-17 to 1-14 in their opening fixture. 

Donegal: Shaun Patton; Finnbarr Roarty, Brendan McCole, Peadar Mogan; Ryan McHugh, Eoghan Bán Gallagher, Ciarán Moore;
Hugh McFadden, Michael Langan; Dáire Ó Baoill, Ciarán Thompson, Shane O'Donnell; Patrick McBrearty, Michael Murphy, Oisín Gallen. Substitutes: Gavin Mulreany, Stephen McMenamin, Odhrán McFadden Ferry, Caolan McColgan, Mark Curran, Odhrán Doherty, Aaron Doherty, Eoin McHugh, Jamie Brennan, Conor O'Donnell and Domhnall Mac Giolla Bhríde.
