Clare stand in second place in the Allianz National Hurling League Division 1A table after two rounds of games.

The Banner were second from bottom after their 7 point defeat at the hands of Cork in Pairc Ui Rinn two weeks ago but the 13 point win over Kilkenny on Sunday propelled the Banner into second.

A win against Tipperary will Put Donal Moloney and Gerry O'Connor's team level on top with the Premier County. Clare would need to win by 8 points or more to go top outright.

Clare continue their preparations for Sunday week's game by training at the University of Limerick tonight.
