Waterford ladies set for huge Division 1 relegation battle with Galway in Pearse Stadium

Another crucial weekend of Lidl National League action could see Final placings confirmed in Divisions 1 and 3, depending on results, while a number of counties are fighting to avoid the drop - including Waterford.

Galway v Waterford; Pearse Stadium @ 3pm on Sunday
Referee: Gus Chapman

There will be a huge relegation battle at Pearse Stadium on Sunday.

Galway and Waterford are two of three teams, along with Cork, on three points ahead of the weekend.

A win for either side here would represent a massive boost in their respective quests to stay alive in Division 1.

Waterford lost out by three points against Dublin in their previous outing, as Galway finally claimed their first points of the season, and in style with victory over Meath.

As both sides target the precious points on offer, the respective management teams have given a nod to the starting 15s that were in action last time out.

The stakes are high and the consequences for the losers of Sunday’s game could be particularly stark.

Waterford: E O’Brien; H Power, E Power, A Murray; K McGrath, A McNulty, A O’Neill; E Murray, K Hogan (capt.); C Walsh, C Carroll, M O’Brien; B McMaugh, K Murray, L McGregor.

Galway: D Gower; M Jordan, S Ní Loingsigh, E Gavin; K Geraghty, N Ward, A Ní Cheallaigh; M Glynn, A Davoren (capt.); O Divilly; S Hynes, M Walsh; L Coen, A O’Rourke, R Leonard.
