Lidl NFL Division 4B

Kilkenny v Derry; MW Hire Training Centre, Dunmore, 2pm
Kilkenny are back in the Lidl National Leagues after a three-year absence – and naturally finding the going tough.

The Cats are attempting to find their feet and rebuild at the same time and they’ve fallen to big defeats against Limerick and Leitrim in their opening two games.

Sunday’s visitors to the MW Hire Training Centre in Dunmore are Derry – and they’re also without a point in the League.

The Oak Leafers have tasted defeat against Leitrim and Wicklow and this one could be a tight affair.

Wicklow v Limerick; Baltinglass, 2pm

These two teams boast 100 per cent records ahead of Sunday’s Baltinglass clash.

Limerick, beaten Division 4 Finalists last year, will fancy their chances of getting back to another Final but it’s a competitive five-team pool they find themselves in.

Leitrim lead the way and now it’s over to Wicklow and Limerick to keep pace, as a win for either side will bring them level on points with the Connacht outfit.

Wicklow had a comfortable victory over Derry in Round 1, as Limerick overcame Kilkenny in their opening fixture.
