One of Donegal's best championship performers so far this year, Jason McGee, has been left out of Jim McGuinness' matchday 26 for Saturday's All-Ireland Sam Maguire Cup Group 3 game against Clare in Castlebar.
McGee got hurt in the recent loss to Cork - and it appears Donegal have opted to rest the midfielder for Saturday's trip to Hastings Insurance MacHale Park.
Mark Curran returns to the starting 15 - with Ciaran Moore named at midfield alongside Michael Langan.
Donegal will progress to the All-Ireland knockout stages if they avoid defeat on Saturday.
Saturday's Group 3 games
Tyrone v Cork, 3pm
Donegal v Clare, 3pm
Group 3 permutations
After wins over Clare and Donegal, Cork will top Group 3with a victory or draw against Tyrone on Saturday.
If Cork get anything from the Tyrone game and Donegal beat Clare, Donegal will finish second behind Cork with Tyrone third.
Tyrone will win the group if they beat Cork and Donegal don't beat Clare.
Donegal could win the group if they overcome Clare and Tyrone get the better of Cork. That would leave Donegal, Tyrone on Cork on four points, meaning scoring difference would decide the placings.
In order to remain in the championship, Clare must beat Donegal and hope Tyrone pick up at least a point against Cork, which would see the Banner County pipping Jim McGuinness' side on the head-to-head.
Saturday's Donegal v Clare game will be live in full on Ocean FM from 3pm - in association with Donegal Plumbing & Heating - with match commentary from Paddy McGill, Manus Boyle and Peter Campbell.
The draw for the All-Ireland prelim quarter-finals will be made on Monday morning on RTÉ radio 1 at 8:35am.
