What time and TV channel is Kilkenny v Galway on today in the Allianz National League?

Micheál Donoghue is not a man to panic. He’s seen it all at this stage.

But a 15 point loss to Tipp last weekend could have been even worse but for two late goals as the 2017 All-Ireland winning manager's second term in charge of his native county begain with a whimper.

Kilkenny trailed by seven points at one stage against Clare last weekend, but reeled them in at Cusack Park to win by two with Martin Keoghan excellent, David Blanchfield a commanding figure at six and new vice captain Peter McDonald showing up well.

Galway could do with a lift in performance, although it's only in Round 2 where we really get to see where teams are. If Tipp are as flying fit as everyone says, maybe Galway are in a better spot than it seems.

And it could be the same with Kilkenny. Clare's level of fitness last weekend will have an impact on any attempt to judge where they Cats are currently at. We'll know a lot more by 3.30pm this afternoon.
