League performance brings no surety of September success

Waterford made history last year by coming from Division 1B to take the Allianz Hurling League title.

This season, Waterford have won the games they needed to. They have a ‘tricky’ quarter-final away to Wexford but they should advance to the last four.

Wexford aren’t doing particularly well in 2016 and this game offers their manager Liam Dunne a chance to benchmark his side’s current position against a top team.
