Waterford GAA fans will have their eyes firmly fixed on Thurles this Saturday as the Déise minors bid for All-Ireland success against Clare in the national decider.

The minor showdown is the highlight of a weekend that also features four senior football quarter-finals live across RTÉ, TG4 and GAA+.

TG4 will bring live coverage of the All-Ireland minor hurling final between Clare and Waterford from FBD Semple Stadium at 5.15pm. The young Déise hurlers are hoping to bring silverware back home and cap off a standout season with national honours on the hallowed turf of Thurles.

It's a massive occasion for the county, and for fans unable to make the trip, TG4's live broadcast means Waterford supporters at home can cheer on the next generation of hurling stars in real time.

Saturday's double-header at Croke Park will be available on GAA+, with Monaghan facing Donegal at 4pm followed by Dublin against Tyrone at 6.15pm in what promises to be a titanic clash at GAA HQ.

On Sunday, all eyes return to Croke Park as RTÉ broadcasts both remaining senior football quarter-finals. Meath and Galway get proceedings underway at 1.45pm before Armagh and Kerry do battle at 4pm for a coveted semi-final spot.
