Dublin's under-20 footballers face Laois this coming Friday night in the EirGrid Leinster U20FC final in O'Connor Park, Tullamore (7.30).

Dublin, beaten provincial finalists last year - the competition's inaugural year, have overcome Longford and Wexford to reach Friday's decider while Laois have come the stronger route having defeated Kildare, Westmeath (after extra-time) and Meath.

Dublin have scored 5-38 and conceded 0-13 in their two victories while Laois have tallied 3-50 and conceded 1-38 in their three victories.

The Leinster winners will face Connacht champions, Galway, in the All-Ireland U20FC semi-final the weekend of July 27/28 while the Munster winners (Cork/Kerry) will meet the Ulster champions, Tyrone, on the same weekend.
