Wexford name unchanged side for All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final against Kerry

Antrim, who also stick with the same 15, go up against Cork.

WEXFORD MANAGER DARRAGH Egan has named an unchanged team to face Kerry in tomorrow’s All-Ireland senior hurling championship preliminary quarter-final.

The sides lock horns in Austin Stack Park with throw-in set for 2pm [live on GAA GO].

The Yellowbellies will come in as heavy favourites, and the same 15 from their win over Kilkenny — who went on to lift the Leinster title afterwards — last time out are named to start.

Kerry, who fell to a one-point Joe McDonagh Cup final defeat to Antrim last weekend, are yet to show their hand.

The Saffron go up against Cork in the other preliminary quarter-final tomorrow, and like Wexford, restore faith in the previous starting 15.

Belfast’s Corrigan Park hosts that clash [also 2pm, live on GAA GO], and the Rebels named their team last night.

The winners will advance to face Galway at the All-Ireland quarter-final stage, with the victors of Kerry and Wexford progressing doing battle with Clare.
