The second round of the Irish Senior Cup and National Cup get underway on Saturday, with a mix of local derbies and long journeys for sides around the country.
County Galway will travel to Warringstown after their controversial win over Fox Lodge in the first round. The Connacht side were due to play at home, but are unable to use their artificial wicket, and as such must once again travel to continue their cup run.

Malahide will host The Hills in an all Fingal tie, whilst Merrion will make the short trip to play YMCA guaranteeing two Leinster sides will make it through the round.

Lisburn and CSNI will face off in an all NCU tie whilst Muckamore will travel to Rathmines to face Leinster and round off the NCU involvement in the second round.

The three North-West sides still in the competition, Bready, Ardmore and Strabane, all face long journeys to Dublin to face North County, Pembroke and Clontarf respectively.
