Clare's Tony Kelly: “Well I hope we don’t concede seven goals! But yeah, look, it’s going to be different, everything about the game is.

"It’s probably going to boil down to who can get off to a good start and keep it going.

“You don’t want to be playing catch up, especially against a good team like Limerick, or any of the teams.

"It’s just an absolute minefield at the minute at the top level, you need to be getting off to a good start and no more so than against Limerick.”

Betting odds

Limerick win: 2/9

Clare win: 4/1

Draw: 12/1
