It's claimed Clare can't afford to underestimate Longford ahead of their knockout clash in the Tailteann Cup.

Following defeat to Offaly last time out, The Banner welcome Longford to Zimmer Biomet Páirc Chiosóg on Saturday evening in their Round 2B clash.

Another defeat for Paul Madden's men would see their Championship campaign for 2026 brought to an end.

Clare FM analyst Paudie Carmody says it's the most pivotal game Clare have played in a number of years.
