For the fourth year in a row Kerry and Meath will battle in the knockout stages of the TG4 Senior All Ireland Championship. The last two years they met in Austin Stack Park in Tralee for the Quarter Final stage, and before that they met in the 2022 decider.

Kerry are going into their fourth All Ireland semi final in a row, and will look to make the same amount of All Ireland Final appearances. For Meath this is their first semi-final tie since July of 2022, and just over three years later they will look to replicate the outcome from that clash with Donegal to get over the line once again. In All Ireland semi-finals Meath have had a good run of form over the years, in 2021, 2020 2019 and 2018 they got over the line and booked All Ireland appearances.

Prior to that it was 2021 defeating Mayo. While they also won semi-finals in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014. 2005 was the last time Dublin failed to win a semi-final they competed in. Their opponents that defeated them?. Galway, a year after they defeated them in the final.

The 2004 Champions Galway will be aiming to make an All Ireland Final for successive seasons, as they look to secure the win in Tullamore. Last year they defeated Cork to book their ticket, now it's Dublin. Before last year 2020 was the last time they featured in a semi-final losing to Cork. 2019 they defeated Mayo before losing to Dublin in the decider. 2018 they lost to Dublin in their last clash in a semi-final. In the last eight years they have made two finals, and largely been competitive to reach the last four on occasions.
