Preview
Both sides are even steven on points coming into this game. Dublin have played three gaes winning two and losing one. They suffered a heavy loss to Kilkenny on the opening weekend, however they followed that up with wins over Laois and Carlow where they won 0-20 to 0-09 last weekend. Dublin will look to players like Oisin O’Rorke, Rian McBride, Eoghan O’Donnell and Sean Moran
Davy Fitzgerald side are also in flying form. They will prove a tough nut to crack here again. They have 2 wins from 3 games also. The loss coming narrowly to Clare, while they recorded wins over Laois and most recent a 1-16 to 1-14 win over Kilkenny. Speaking after the game Davy said, “We’re delighted to get the victory,”. He continued, “The way we used the ball, and our composure in the last 7 or 8 minutes was very good, I thought”. “Every game to me is important. I was asked could I get to a league semi-final or final, and I honestly don’t look at it like that”. Players like Conor McDonald, Kevin Foley and Liam Ryan will be key here once again.
