If Galway triumph in Parnell Park on Sunday, aside from reaching their 11th Leinster final, they will also secure their first ever championship win over Dublin at a venue in the capital city.

A Dublin win, apart from extending their unbeaten home run against the Tribesmen to nine games in 15 championship meetings, will secure them a seventh Leinster final appearance since Galway started participating in the Leinster championship in 2009.
