The unforgiving terrain of hurling’s top flight continues to test Antrim’s mettle this weekend as they travel to Parnell Park to take on Dublin in round two.
One week on from going toe-to-toe with Kilkenny at Corrigan Park, the Saffrons seek to pick themselves up and bounce back against a Dublin team who have had their measure in recent seasons.
Dublin came away from Corrigan Park with a four-point victory in last season’s League meeting and, under new manager Micheál Donoghue, they claimed a 3-26 to 2-22 win at the north Dublin venue when the sides met in last month’s Walsh Cup tie.
