Moran's side have come a long way from their defeat by Tyrone

McEldowney sustained a back injury in the win over Westmeath and has been unable to train since then.

Paddy Bradley's training has also been affected since the quarter-final because of a heel injury although he seems certain to line out on Sunday.

Mark Lynch, Jim Kelly and Ciaran Mullan should be in the squad after being unavailable for the Westmeath game.

All three have recovered from injury although at best, they will earn places on the bench.

Colin Cooper is expected to be named in the Kerry team despite concerns over a hamstring injury.

Cooper missed the last Tuesday's Munster U21 Football Final because of the injury.

He is likely to have a fitness test on Thursday evening.

Seamus Moynihan seems likely to be ruled out for Kerry.

The former Allstar hasn't played since the Munster Semi-Final win over Cork because of a hamstring injury.
