Westmeath hurling manager Shane O'Brien has named an unchanged team from that which came close to shocking Cork last weekend for tomorrow's trip to Thurles to face All-Ireland champions Tipperary.

It will be the first Allianz Hurling League meeting of the counties since 1985 when Westmeath prevailed by 1-18 to 1-11 at TEG Cusack Park. The Lake County also enjoyed a 5-12 to 3-11 league victory over Tipp at the same venue two years earlier.

Westmeath (SH v Tipperary): Aaron McHugh; Conor Shaw, Tommy Doyle, Adam Ennis; Aaron Craig, Aonghus Clarke, Liam Varley; Cormac Boyle, Eoin Price; Joey Boyle, Derek McNicholas, Robbie Greville; Niall Mitchell, Allan Devine, Ciaran Doyle.
