Donegal finally get their season underway as Dublin make the trip up to Ballybofey this weekend, as the boys from the capital look to make it two from two.
Donegal’s trip to Kerry last weekend was postponed due to the effects of Storm Eowyn, so McGuinness' side will be fresh and ready for their upcoming opponents.
With Dublin’s visit comes the prospect of Donegal fans seeing Michael Murphy back in the Tír Chonnaill panel after two years in retirement, as the Glenswilly forward and his All-Ireland-winning manager are reunited, under slightly different circumstances.
Last year, Donegal stormed to the Division Two league title, just pipping eventual All-Ireland title winners Armagh to the league title.
The green and gold then adorned the Anglo-Celt Cup after they defeated Armagh again in Clones on penalties before falling to Galway in the All-Ireland semi-final.
Dublin look to make it two wins from two after a tight opening night victory over Mayo, which was somewhat overshadowed by the news that Jack McCaffrey and Paul Mannion had both stepped away from the senior panel.
Head coach Dessie Farrell also said that goalkeeper Stephen Cluxton will join up with the squad again in the coming weeks and Paddy Small is back training again, with brother John joining up soon.
