Kildare are looking for a first win after losing to Meath last time out.
Laois will be hoping for a win and an impressive one at that in the second round of the Allianz National Hurling League campaign.

Willie Maher's charges managed to secure a seven point victory over Down in the first round with Maher declaring his satisfaction with the result and not the performance.
Midlands 103 commentator Nolan reckons if Laois are to develop momentum, they need to improve this weekend.
He begins his preview of the Kildare game by looking back on the Down contest with David Hollywood:
The action in Kildare gets underway at 2pm on Sunday.
