Allianz Hurling League Match Predictions: Limerick Set to Edge A Cracker

Clare have really got their act together given that suffering a disappointing 2025 - mainly due to a long injury list - and have had little problem signing up 6 wins from 6 in Division 1B.


The 2024 All-Ireland champs appear to have had a far much better run with injuries this season and numerous of their marquee gamers have appeared consistently throughout the league, while Diarmuid Stritch and Shane Meehan to name a few have put their hands up as players who might have break-out seasons.


Whether previous hurler of the year Shane O'Donnell is fit stays to be seen but with Tony Kelly, Peter Duggan, Mark Rodgers and David Fitzgerald in their ranks, they have huge firepower up front.


They beat Dublin by three points earlier this year but their challengers have actually been racking up big ratings since. Niall O'Ceallachain's side have actually balanced 35 points a game considering that.


Given the assaulting skill on screen, this is poised to be a high-scoring affair. Dublin are extremely direct and have hit the net 11 times in their last 4 video games.


Limerick vs Cork


4pm Sunday, TG4


This promises to be a cracker between two teams with a storied competition, especially recently, and there will be no shadow boxing even though there is unique possibility they could satisfy three more times this season.


Following an opening loss to Waterford, this Limerick team have actually truly assaulted the League and have actually been extremely outstanding in spots. After hammering Tipperary, they beat Cork by 8 points a month back, although their opponents will field a more powerful side this time.


In the final round against Galway, Limerick were absolutely mind-blowing in the very first half before enduring a scare in the last quarter. The first thirty minutes was an indication of what they can in full flight.
