Ballyroan Manager Martin Murphy meets familiar faces in Portlaoise this weekend.

The Laois Senior Football Championship quarter-finals get underway on Saturday evening in Portlaoise.

The first game of four sees Martin Murphy coming up against his old club as Ballyroan Abbey meet Portarlington.

The action in O'Moore Park starts at  5.30pm on Saturday.
