What time and TV channel is Mayo v Tyrone on today in the All-Ireland final?

It's All-Ireland final day as Mayo and Tyrone prepare to do battle at Croke Park this evening.

And over 41,000 fans will be in attendance with history guaranteed to be made as Sam Maguire is set to find a new home.

Seven-in-a-row chasers Dublin and heavyweights Kerry were both floored at the semi-final stage, paving the way for an exciting decider.

James Horan's Mayo side come in as slight favourites after their momentous victory over the Blues, will they be able to banish 'the curse' and end a 70-year wait for All-Ireland success?

And the Red Hand men are chasing a first All-Ireland since 2008, with life under Feargal Logan and Brian Dooher getting off to an incredible start as they look to make a big breakthrough.

Here's everything you need to know ahead of the game:

Tyrone defender Kieran McGeary: "You can do tactics until you're blue in the face, Mayo's going to bring intensity.

“It's a huge part of why they're there and that just shows the passion and hunger they have to be in an All-Ireland Final.

“So we'll have to get that sorted. If we can match half of what they can bring, we'll not be doing too bad.”

He added: “Everyone has a job to do - big or small

“You'll hear commentators talking about it. If you see a fire, put it out.

“Every player has that responsibility - see a fire, put it out.

“In terms of freedom, nobody is given the licence to do what they want when they want on the pitch.

“It might sometimes look like we're doing what we wish, but everybody has a role and responsibility inside of the white lines.”

Mayo win: 5/6
