The Faithful County can secure promotion with a win if Cavan beat Fermanagh.
A shot at promotion is exactly what the Offaly footballers deserve.
That's according to midlands 103 commentator Brian Gavin.
The Faithful County were rocked by the sudden passing of their manager Liam Kearns just 10 days ago.
The following weekend brought a trip to Liam Kearns' former team Tipperary, where Offaly ran out 7 point winners.
That result has left them in position to secure promotion this weekend if they beat Down and results elsewhere go their way.
Brian Gavin says wants Offaly fans to get behind the team this weekend:
