Wexford say they are confident they can put it up to Tipperary in tomorrow’s Allianz National Hurling League semi-final.

Michael Ryan’s named 12 of last year’s All-Ireland-winning side, including the returning Cathal Barrett and Brendan Maher for the game in Nowlan park tomorrow.

2016 All-Ireland winning captain Maher’s back to start in midfield for the clash against Wexford at Nowlan Park.

All Star corner-back Barrett will make his first start in the league after recovering from an ankle injury to come off the bench last time out.

Wexford’s Diarmuid O’Keefe says Manager Davy Fitzgerald’s brought great positivity and belief to the Model County set-up this season.
