Adare and Ballylanders to meet in crucial Limerick SFC tie

ADARE and Ballylanders meet this Tuesday evening in the remaining Irish Wire Products round four fixture in Kilmallock with both sides needing wins for very different reasons.

Beaten finalists Adare have three wins from their three games to date and will be firm favourties to see off a Ballylanders outfit that have struggled this year.

Ballylanders have suffered defeats to Galtee Gaels, Ballysteen and Monaleen thus far. The six goals conceded in their last outing against Ballysteen providing a real concern for the Ballylanders men heading into tonight's contest. 

They are in a perilous position ahead of tonight and the final round fixture with Na Piarsaigh. If Ballylanders can't find a win from either game, they will be in the relegation play-off.

For Adare, it's much more straightforward. A win over Ballylanders and against Ballysteen in the final group game will see John Brudair's side sail into the semi-final topping the group. Throw in at Kilmallock this evening is at 7.30pm.
