Allianz Hurling League Quarter-Finals

Limerick v Clare, Gaelic Grounds, 4pm

A bumper crowd is expected at the Gaelic Grounds as Limerick seek to build on their promotion exploits.

Aaron Gillane scored heavily throughout the group stages, while Seamus Flanagan’s five point haul against Galway was noteworthy.

Flanagan’s duel with Conor Cleary is one of many intriguing sub plots. Limerick and Clare both look to be in good fettle ahead of the summer so this will be worth monitoring.
