On the Sunday Wexford play last year's league champions Waterford, unbeaten again this year prior to their final two games of the campaign, in Innovate Wexford Park.

That throws in at 3.30pm, while 15 minutes later in Nowlan Park All-Ireland winners Kilkenny host Offaly, and Division Two table-toppers Clare meet Tipperary in Ennis.
