After last Sunday's dramatic All-Ireland hurling final, the countdown is well and truly on to this weekend's football final.

It will be a tough task to match Clare's defeat of Cork as a spectacle but neither Galway nor Armagh will care too much about that. Their focus is solely on bringing the cup back home.

Both teams will believe their name is on the trophy after their brilliant wins in the semi-finals, with Galway upsetting Dublin while Armagh shocked Kerry so it promises to be another thriller at the GAA's HQ.

Anyway, here's all you need to know ahead of the All-Ireland football final with more to come as we edge closer to throw-in.

Where is Galway v Armagh on?

The All-Ireland SFC final will be contested at Croke Park.

When is Galway v Armagh on?

The two teams will battle it out for the Sam Maguire Cup on Sunday, July 28. Throw-in is scheduled for 3.30pm.

Where can I watch Galway v Armagh?

The game will be broadcast live on RTÉ2, the RTÉ player and BBC Northern Ireland with RTÉ's coverage beginning at 2.15pm.

Where can I get a ticket?

Ah, the million dollar question.

Similar to the hurling final, tickets will not be available for general sale through Ticketmaster, SuperValu or Centra. Instead they are only available through GAA clubs who were set to receive their allocations last Wednesday, July 17.

Who is the referee?

The referee will be Sean Hurson from Tyrone.
