Donegal have a 12-year unbeaten league record in Ballybofey on the line against Tyrone

The last visiting team to win at MacCumhaill Park in the league was Down, back on March 13, 2010

2017 - Division 1
Dublin, with two All-Ireland crowns on the bounce, looked under pressure in a marshy MacCumhaill Park, with two goals in 40 seconds towards the end of the first half making for a 2-2 to 0-5 lead for the home side. Jason McGee and Ryan McHugh found the net. However, Jim Gavin’s team got in front in the second half with Niall Scully a goalscorer only for Michael Murphy to pinch a draw, 2-5 to 1-8. Then, on a woeful night, Tyrone were beaten 0-12 to 0-6 at county headquarters with Ciaran Thompson kicking three fine scores. Donegal ended the campaign in third place, although the semi-finals by then had been dropped. (13)
