Martin Coleman's Douglas and the Martin Hayes-led Bishopstown hurlers are in desperate need of a pick-me-up result as the Cork Premier SHC reaches a crucial juncture. Heavy opening day losses mean the two southside clubs are very much stationed in must-win territory. 

For Douglas and Bishopstown, the margins of their defeats three weeks ago add to the significant mountains to be climbed inside the respective camps ahead of their meeting this Friday.
