It might be billed as a League game, but this weekend’s clash between Laois and Antrim already has the feel of a Championship battle about it.
O’Moore Park is the setting for what is a must-win game for both counties as they bid to avoid a relegation play-off.
The possibility of All-Ireland champions Limerick being on the other side of that play-off will only add to the tension, albeit the Treatymen will be expected to defeat Offaly at home in their final Division 1A game later this month.
