Clare could move within 70 minutes of reaching the All-Ireland Senior Football Super 8s if they can get past Westmeath in Mullingar.
The Lakesiders are Division Three champions and slight favourites with the bookies.
But the Banner’s record against Westmeath has been impressive with a comfortable 2016 league victory.
And Clare have also won their only previous championship meeting – a 0-12 to 0-9 victory in 2005.
Throw-in at TEG Cusack Park, Mullingar is 6pm and we’ll have live coverage here on Clare FM in association with Tubridy’s Bar and Restaurant Doonbeg.
