Clare stick with same formula for All-Ireland quarter-final against Wexford

The sides meet at Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Saturday.

JOINT MANAGERS DONAL Moloney and Gerry O’Connor have this evening revealed their hand for Clare’s All-Ireland hurling championship quarter-final clash with Wexford on Saturday.

Clare narrowly fell short of securing an automatic passage through to the last four after a two-point defeat to Cork in the Munster final earlier this month, but the Banner have stuck with the same formula for their showdown with Davy Fitzgerald’s Wexford.

Patrick O’Connor again captains a team which shows no changes from the reversal to Cork in the provincial decider, with Podge Collins, John Conlon and Shane O’Donnell again leading the forward line.

Clare are bidding to reach the All-Ireland final for the first time since 2013, which was also the last time they lifted the Liam MacCarthy.

Wexford beat Westmeath in the preliminary quarter-finals to set up Saturday’s meeting with Clare, which takes place at Páirc Uí Chaoimh and will be shown live on RTÉ.

The action gets underway at 3pm.
