Peadar Mogan of Donegal in action against Tom Jackson of Louth in last year's All-Ireland SFC quarter-final at Croke Park
Donegal face Louth on Sunday at 4pm at MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey, with a place in the All-Ireland quarter-finals the prize that awaits the victors.
The side managed by Jim McGuinness sealed second place in Group 1 of the round-robin series thanks to Ciaran Moore's winner against Mayo, 0-19 to 1-15, while Louth came third in Group 3 behind Monaghan and Down.
Louth lost 1-23 to 4-8 against Monaghan and then 0-25 to 0-24 when they played Down. Last Sunday, they assured themselves of a last 12 place thanks to a 2-17 to 2-14 victory over Clare in Portlaoise.
