Armchair fans are in for a treat this weekend as the National Football and Hurling Leagues finish with a whopping 13 games being broadcast.
The hurling League finishes up on Saturday with the final round of the football league on Sunday.
Cork will return to the League final to defend their title if they avoid defeat against Offaly at SuperValu Páirc Uà Chaoimh on Saturday night (7pm) while All-Ireland champions Tipperary can, mathematically, reach the final with a facile win over Kilkenny at FBD Semple Stadium (7pm).
Both games are live on the Spórt TG4 YouTube channel with TG4 showing live coverage of Limerick’s clash with Galway at the TUS Gaelic Grounds at 7pm with the winner likely to join Cork in the decider.
Additionally, the all-Ulster Division 1B clash between Down and Antrim at Páirc Esler (5pm) will be streamed live on the BBC iPlayer and also available to watch via GAA Plus with both teams fighting to avoid relegation to Division Two.
On Sunday, the attention turns to football with all eight games across the top two divisions available to watch live.
TG4 will have live coverage of the Division Two showdown with Kildare and Louth from Newbridge at 1.15 as the Lilywhites bid to avoid a return to Division Three while the Wee County need a win to have any chance of being promoted.
Avoiding relegation is also the aim for both Galway and Dublin who meet in Pearse Stadium at 3.30pm and the TG4 cameras will be there to show all the action from the Division One contest.
The Armagh versus Kerry game in the Box-It Athletic Grounds at 3.30pm is on the BBC iPlayer and also available to watch via GAA Plus while the remainder of the games will be shown via the Spórt TG4 YouTube channel.
The Division Three promotion showdown between Wexford and Westmeath at 2pm is also available on the TG4 App and Player.
