Neil Montgomery will make his first championship start for Waterford in Sunday's All Ireland final.
The Abbeyside man gets the nod in attack ahead of Jake Dillon. Montgomery scored two second half points in the comeback win against Kilkenny two weeks ago.
Defender Shane Fives returns to the matchday squad after recovering from a quad muscle injury.
There are only six survivors from the 2017 All Ireland loss to Galway (Stephen O'Keeffe, Tadhg De Burca, Kevin Moran, Jamie Barron, Kieran Bennett and Austin Gleeson).
Limerick have named an unchanged team with All Star forward Aaron Gillane deemed fit to start.
