Team News: Mickey Harte has named an unchanged Tyrone team for the All-Ireland SFC quarter-final against Dublin at Croke Park on Saturday.

Ciarán Gourley retains his place in the Tyrone defence after PJ Quinn, who missed the win over Mayo, failed to recover from his injury in time.

Up front Joe McMahon also keeps his place after coming on as a late replacement against Mayo.

Paul Caffrey named his Dublin starting line-up last night and full-back Ross McConnell was the notable change as he was recalled in the only change.

McConnell was dropped for the Leinster final against Wexford and replaces Kevin Nolan and will surely have the unenviable task to containing Tyrone's Sean Cavanagh.

Saturday's game is a repeat fixture at the same juncture of the 2005 championship, which Tyrone won from a replay on their way to securing their second All-Ireland in as many years.

Harte still has 10 players from that 2005 match set to feature in Saturday's game.

One exception is Owen Mulligan, who scored the memorable goal to set Tyrone on their way in 2005.
 
Tyrone: J Devine; R McMenamin, Justin McMahon, C Gourley; D Harte, C Gormley, P Jordan; R Mellon, E McGinley; B Dooher, B McGuigan, Joe McMahan; T McGuigan, S Cavanagh, C McCullagh

Dublin: S Cluxton; D Henry, R McConnell, P Griffin; C Moran, B Cullen, B Cahill; C Whelan, S Ryan; D Connolly, J Sherlock, K Bonner; A Brogan, C Kearney, T Quinn.
