Clare\u2019s stint in Division 1B was always likely to be a brief one and they\u2019ve the chance to return to the top tier as champions when they face Dublin this afternoon.<\/p>\n
Whatever about the merits of playing this game as a curtain-raiser to the Division 1A final, both teams should benefit from the outing.<\/p>\n
The Banner will be keen to get out of an incredibly difficult Munster group and challenge for provincial and All-Ireland glory once again after lifting the Liam MacCarthy in 2024.<\/p>\n
Dublin\u2019s goal appears set on challenging for a first Leinster title since 2013. Beating Clare and being promoted as champions of Division 1B would be quite the shot in the arm for Niall \u00d3 Ceallach\u00e1in\u2019s men.<\/p>\n
