Kyle Hayes returns to the Limerick side for Saturday's Division 1A clash against Tipperary

The Limerick senior hurling side to face Tipperary in Saturday evening's Division 1A Allianz Hurling League clash at FBD Semple Stadium in Thurles has been named.

The game has a 5.30pm throw-in and will be live on RTE 2 TV.

Limerick's starting line-up to face the All-Ireland champions includes the return of the fit-again Kyle Hayes who is named at wing back.

Hayes returns to comepetitive action for the first time this year after recovering from an injury picked up while playing with his club Kildimo-Pallaskenry in the 2025 Limerick senior hurling championship.

Will O'Donoghue, of Na Piarsaigh, is selected at centre half-back.

A strong Limerick line-up also includes several members of ULs Fitzgibbon Cup winning side, including the likes of Man of the Match Cathal O'Neill, Adam English, Colin Coughlan and Aidan O'Connor.

Limerick will be looking to build on their impressive victory over Kilkenny last time out when travelling to Thurles this weekend.
