WATERFORD FACING BIG BATTLE TO STAY IN MUNSTER CONTENTION
Clare and Waterford have the Liam MacCarthy Cup action to themselves this weekend (Saturday, FBD Semple Stadium, 6.00PM).
Itโs the only game in the Munster championship while Leinster, where all six counties have played three games, takes a break before resuming next weekend.
WATERFORD v CLARE
Having lost their first two games, Waterford need to win to give themselves a chance of staying in All-Ireland contention. It will be a tough ask for Davy Fitzgeraldโs men after losing to Limerick and Cork.
Clare lost to Tipperary before bouncing back with a very impressive win over Limerick.
