Senior Ladies face Fermanagh in league encounter

The Waterford Ladies put their 100% record in this season’s LIDL National Football League on the line when they make the long trek to Fermanagh to play the host team on Sunday next. Both teams have started the league with contrasting fortunes, Waterford had a one point win over Tipperary in their opening game and followed it up with a good win away to Offaly in round 2. Fermanagh on the other hand saw their first game against Leitrim postponed and an under-strength squad suffered a very heavy defeat against Tipperary in Bansha last time out.

The teams have met regularly in the league in the past with honours pretty even with never more than three points between the teams. Their last meeting in the championship was in 2014 when Fermanagh, powered by Caroline Little ended Waterford’s hopes in a quarter final defeat. Waterford’s confidence should be high for the match and have the fire-power to record a third successive win in the league.

Throw-in is at 2:00 at a Fermanagh venue to be confirmed during the week with Gus Chapman in charge of proceedings.
