Limerick boss John Kiely has made two changes to his side for Sunday’s Munster senior hurling championship second round meeting with Clare in Ennis.

Darragh O'Donovan and Tom Morrissey come into the Treaty men’s starting line-up from the defeat to Cork last weekend, with the suspended Cian Lynch and David Reidy the players to miss out.

Lynch was red-carded during the second-half of the two-point defeat to the Rebels at Pairc Ui Chaoimh, resulting in a one match ban which will see the Patrickswell clubman absent on Sunday as William O'Donoghue fills in as team captain.

Lynch’s clubmate Aaron Gillane remains sidelined with a calf injury, while Paddy O'Donovan comes into the matchday squad having missed the Shannonsiders’ provincial opener.

Throw-in at Zimmer Biomet Páirc Chíosóg is at 2pm and the game will be shown live on RTE.
