Both clubs bring solid championship form to Mullingar on Saturday.
Section A meets Section B in the Westmeath Senior Football Championship quarter finals this weekend.
Athlone meet The Downs in Cusack Park tomorrow afternoon.
Athlone collected three draws against Tang, Tyrrellspass, and Coralstown Kinnegad on the way to progressing to the championship knockout phase.
A win over Caulry and a loss to St Loman's preceded those games.
The Downs meanwhile are back in the county quarter-finals after failing to collect a single win in defence of their championship last year.
The 2022 champions won all their group games with the exception of a two goal loss to Mullingar Shamrocks last month.
The action in Mullingar throws in at 5.45pm tomorrow.
