For the second time in the space of three years, Longford and Carlow will clash in the senior football championship with Meath awaiting the winners in the Leinster quarter-final.

While it looks like a favourable first round draw in the straight knock-out 2021 championship, Longford certainly cannot afford to be complacent against Division 4 opponents Carlow who have caused a couple of upsets in the recent past.
