After two incredibly entertaining semi-finals, the capital men will duke it out with the Cats in a repeat of their last final appearance in 2014. And Croke Park will welcome 18,000 fans for both the final and the Leinster football semi-finals next weekend. In another move to gradually increase crowd attendances, Minister for Sport Jack Chambers also announced that 7,000 supporters will be permitted for the Munster hurling final between Limerick and Tipperary in Pairc Ui Chaoimh on Sunday week. And this coming weekend 3,500 fans will be able to attend the Munster football between Cork and Limerick in Pairc Ui Chaoimh and Tipperary and Kerry at Semple Stadium. A similar crowd will be in MacHale Park for the Mayo's Connacht semi-final tie against Leitrim. It follows the success of other pilot events in recent weeks, with Taoiseach Micheal Martin himself one of 2,400 supporters at the Cork-Limerick Munster hurling semi-final in Thurles last weekend. Here's everything you need to know ahead of the final. The game throws in at 7:30pm on Saturday, July 17. Croke Park will host the game, with 18,000 fans permitted to attend. RTE will carry coverage of the game. You can also follow the game on Dublin Live with our live blog. Dublin beat Galway in front of 8,000 fans at Croke Park to book their place in the final. The Dubs went into the match as the underdogs against a Galway side that many are tipping for All-Ireland glory. But after Alan Nolan stopped some early shots on goal from Joe Canning, Dublin raced into an early lead and should have been more than two points ahead at half-time. Galway got a lifeline when Conor Whelan used his pace and power to barge through the Dublin defence and find the back of the bet. But shortly afterwards some great composure from Dublin sub Oisin O'Rourke saw him find an onrushing Chris Crummey to score a brilliant goal. And Galway were never able to bridge the gap and will now go into the qualifiers. For Dublin they will have the chance to win their first Leinster title since 2013. Meanwhile, Walter Walsh's goal in the second half of extra-time helped Kilkenny overcome Wexford in a titanic battle. Davy Fitzgerald's side staged a dramatic comeback and hit three late points to tie the game, sending it to the extra period. Wexford had led 0-15 to 0-14 at the break after a back-and-forth first half and went down by four after the interval after a flurry of Kilkenny points. David Dunne struck the first goal of the game with just eight minutes of normal time remaining and Lee Chin, who finished with 0-14, added a point to put Wexford three ahead. But the Cats rallied and rattled off points to level the scores before a goal from Eoin Cody seemingly put them in control. Liam Ryan's point sent the game to extra-time, with hawk-eye ruling it a point after Eoin Murphy had appeared to stop it going over and Conor McDonald had slotted the rebound to the net. The hawk-eye replay showed that the ball had actually dropped over the bar before Murphy had stopped it and the extra period was required. There was more drama at the start of extra-time when Murphy was binned for dragging down Connal Flood and his opposite number Mark Fanning converted the penalty. Brian Cody's charges battled well when down to 14 men and found themselves just a point behind at half-time in extra-time. Substitute Walsh then got the crucial goal that finally put some breathing space between the teams and there was no way back for Wexford this time. Betting odds  Kilkenny 2/5  Dublin 11/4  Draw 10/1
