It's the first of 3 away games for the lake county.
The Westmeath hurlers open up their Joe McDonagh Cup campaign with a midlands derby, as they travel to O'Moore Park to take on Laois this weekend.
It proved to be a difficult league for The Lake County however, having been relegated to Division 2A after just picking up one win from their six league games.
This is the first of three away games for the midlanders, with trips to Kildare and Kerry to follow for the rest of the campaign.
Westmeath manager Seoirse Bulfin says it's important to try to win the first game.
The match throws in at 3 o'clock on Saturday.
