Cooper will captain the team after returning to club action in recent weeks following a short break in the wake of Dr Crokes’ All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Crossmaglen.

Kerry are already guaranteed top spot and a semi-final place on Sunday week and with that in mind Jack O’Connor has made six changes to the team that beat Laois last day out.
