Preview
This is a big game for both sides with the team that loses been relegated in my opinion. Laois come into the game with three games played and three losses. They have lost to Wexford 2-27 to 2-16, Dublin 4-18 to 2-17 and then last weekend lost to Clare. Eddie Brennan has stated this is a big game for his side. Speaking to RTE Sport he said, “It’s do-or-die,” . “I think every match is that way when you’re trying to make the jump, and get up there and stay up there. “So there’s a huge value in this.” Brennan will look to players like Paddy Purcell, Ross King and Ryan Mullaney for leadership here.
Carlow also come into the game on the back of three losses from three games. They lost heavily to Clare in their first game 1-27 to 0-14, before also losing out to Dublin 0-20 to 0-09 and Kilkenny 3-21 to 0-09. Furthermore, Colm Bonnar will look to players like Marty Kavanagh, John Michael Nolan and Chris Nolan to provide the much needed scores to get a win here. Speaking to KCLR Radio Bonnar said following the loss to Dublin, “Just looking at it I suppose overall, 0-9, we do need to carry out more of a scoring threat, but we have a lot of serious players that haven’t been available to us for this league, and even on the bench we weren’t able to bring them on”.
