Tipperary's senior hurlers will face Cork on Saturday evening

Tipperary's senior hurling team to take on Cork in the Allianz National Hurling League in FBD Semple Stadium this Saturday evening has been named.

Liam Cahill has made two changes to the team that lost out to Limerick in the third round two weekends ago, and with a win set to ensure Division 1A status for next year, it looks like this will be an all-out effort from the Premier.

Joe Caesar of Holycross Ballycahill comes into the team to make his debut, while Jason Forde comes back into the fray after sitting out the loss to Limerick. Both Darragh Stakelum and Seamus Kennedy drop to the bench as a result.

Noel McGrath is on the bench once again while young Eoin Horgan takes his place on the bench for the first time due to an injury to Rhys Shelly.

See the full matchday panel and starting team below.

The game takes place in FBD Semple Stadium on Saturday, February 22 with the throw-in down for 7.30. The game will also be streamed live on RTÉ 2.
