HURLING: One Change for Galway Ahead of Leinster Senior Championship Clash with Kilkenny

The Galway senior hurling team to play Kilkenny in the Leinster championship on Sunday (30th April) shows one change to the team that beat Wexford last weekend.

Arrdrahan’s Cianan Fahy, who was introduced as a substitute last weekend, comes into the team in place of Thomas Monaghan.

This will be the 50th championship meeting between the sides with Galway hoping to record victory over the Cats for the 14th time in championship hurling.

On Galway’s last visit to Nowlan Park in 2019, they defeated Kilkenny by 3-20 to 2-22. It was Kilkenny’s first championship defeat at the venue in 70 years. Cathal Mannion scored 0-8 on that day including 0-7 from play.

Throw-in at UPMC Nowlan Park on Sunday is 2pm and we’ll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.
