David Tubridy returns to the Clare senior football team in the only change from the side which began their Division 2 Allianz National Football League campaign last weekend.

Experienced Doonbeg forward, Tubridy replaced the injured Jamie Malone and will start at full forward with Keelan Sexton moving to the left corner.

Malone sustained what is reported to be a hamstring injury in the early moments of Clare’s 1-16 0-12 win over Laois in Cusack Park on Sunday.

In that win, Colm Collins handed a starting debut to Daniel Walsh who scored 1-01 from wing back while Lissycasey’s Aaron Griffin and Ikem Ugwueru of Éire Óg made their first appearances for the county seniors from the bench.
