Laois Face Antrim With Leinster Championship Status On the Line

The loser will ply their trade in the Joe McDonagh Cup.

It's do or die for both Laois and Antrim in the Leinster Hurling Championship tomorrow. 

The two sides meet knowing defeat will mean relegation back to the Joe McDonagh Cup. 

It's almost four weeks to the day since their opening salvo in the Allianz League, where the Saffrons came out on top by four points in Belfast. 

Laois are yet to win a game this season and are still dealing with several injuries in key positions. 

Cheddar Plunkett is going to have a headache making up his half-back, midfield and half-forward line and will also have an eye on another relegation showdown with Westmeath on All-Ireland semi-final weekend. 

Laois starting XV:

Enda Rowland; Lee Cleere, Sean Downey, Donnchadh Hartnett; Stephen Maher, Ciaran McEvoy, Ryan Mullaney; Fiachra C-Fennell, Jack Kelly; Paddy Purcell, Cha Dwyer, Ciaran Collier; PJ Scully, Willie Dunphy, Ross King.
