Midlands 103 commentator certain that the Laois side will put in a strong performance this Sunday, but Tinahely will not back down.
Portarlington are gearing up for their Leinster Senior Football Club Championship match on Sunday.
They play Wicklow Champions Tinahely in O'Moore Park in a first round clash at half past 2.
The Laois team beat Portlaoise in the county final three weeks ago, and made the semi-final in 2022 when they lost to Dublin's Kilmacud Crokes.
Midlands 103 commentator Pat O'Sullivan warns that the garden county representatives will come looking to make a statement on the weekend.
