WATERFORD AND GALWAY will clash in the championship for the first time since the 2017 All-Ireland hurling final after this mornings round 2 qualifier draw.
The Deise were drawn against the Tribesmen, while Brian Lohans Clare will meet Kieran Kingstons Cork.
Waterford and Clare came through their round 1 games at the weekend against Laois and Wexford respectively. Cork and Galway were awarded a bye into the second round following their provincial semi-final exits.
Both round 2 games will take place on Saturday, with times and venues to be confirmed later today.
Beaten provincial finalists Dublin and Tipperary await in the All-Ireland quarter-finals, which will take place on 31 July.
Teams who met previously in the championship cant be drawn against one another, so Tipperary cant play Clare and Dublin cant face Galway. Progression for Cork and Waterford would mean a draw is required for the next round.
