FBD Semple Stadium in Thurles will host the big match on Friday night, which throws in at 7pm, after the counties agreed to toss for home advantage.

This will be the beginning of a two game home and away arrangement between Tipperary and Limerick for Munster finals played at this grade, the Munster Council added.

Tipperary come into the game off the back of a huge nine-point win over Waterford last Friday night, Rian McGrath and Josh Moroeny getting the crucial second half goals for James Woodlock's side.

However, the Premier are in for a tough battle against strong Limerick outfit who ran them close in the round robin game in Limerick a few weeks ago.
