John Conlon looks like filling the remaining position on the starting 15 at left half forward with a final fitness test to be completed before throw in.

There are three changes to the side from last weekend with Jack Browne coming in at wing back and Conor Ryan moving to midfield to replace the injured Colm Galvin.

Gearoid O'Connell and Aaron Shanager make their first league starts in place of Darach Honan and Peter Duggan.

The sides come into this afternoons clash after contrasting fortunes in the opening round, with Clare easing past Offaly and Wexford suffering a heavy loss against Limerick.

Selector Louis Mulqueen says while they're looking to improve on their performance, there were plenty positives to work on.

Meanwhile one of the men hoping to get the better of Clare today is hopeful they can make home advantage count.

Wexford's Lee Chin says they need to make the most of the opportunity
