The winners of those two matches will face the provincial runners-up in a fortnight's time.

The Clare and Wexford game is particularly intriguing as it pits Clare All-Ireland winning teammates Brian Lohan and Davy Fitzgerald against each other. There has been bad blood between the two for many years. The Lohan-managed Clare got the better of the Fitzgerald-managed Wexford in the National League back in February with a 0-18 to 0-15 win.

Clare beat Laois by a point in the first round of the qualifiers at the weekend after losing to Limerick in the Munster quarter-final. Wexford were beaten by Galway in the Leinster semi-final.

Cork play for a third consecutive weekend against Tipperary. They beat Dublin at the weekend having lost out to Waterford in the Munster semi-final a week previous. Reigning All-Ireland champions Tipperary playing the qualifiers after losing to Limerick in the other Munster semi-final.
