The last time Kildare and Cork met in the league was back in 2024, in Pairc Uí Chaoimh, when The Rebels triumphed 2-15 to 3-9, a result that helped Kildare drop own to Division 3, along with Fermanagh.
Kildare lie in sixth place on the table with just three points, one point ahead of Cavan who have two and three ahead of Offaly who have yet to register a point.
Of vital importance at this stage is who plays who, at both ends of the table, and the remaining fixtures for Round 6 and 7 are as follows:
Round 6: Louth v Derry; Cork v Kildare; Meath Tyrone; Offaly v Cavan.
Round 7: Derry v Cavan; Kildare v Louth; Offaly v Meath; Tyrone v Cork.
Kildare have to step up, and step up big time if they are to get anything from this game. Since they held Tyrone to a draw, defeated Offaly and despite leading Derry by four points at half-time, went down by three points (3-15 to 1-18).
Two goals conceded inside a minute of that second half against Derry has really knocked the stuffing out of The Lilies, in fact it is fair to say they have never really recovered from that, losing out to Cavan, no world beaters by any standards, and then to a strong Meath side two weeks ago in Newbridge.
