Waterford will meet Limerick in the All Ireland camogie quarter finals at Semple Stadium this afternoon.

The Déise have fallen at this hurdle in the last four years but Sunday Game analyst Ursula Jacob believes that they can get over the line on this occasion.

"It's a huge game for Waterford. They want to right the wrongs of previous years. They don't want to leave Thurles with any regrets. Looking in from the outside, it's their best chance of reaching an All Ireland semi final."

Two of the best forwards in the game will take the field in Beth Carton and Caoimhe Costelloe. Carton has scored 1-35 in the 2022 championship while Costelloe has shot 3-35. "Beth is not only a brilliant leader and player for Waterford, she's one of the best in Ireland. When I look back on last year's quarter final against Tipp, Beth was missing through injury and that was a huge blow for Waterford. Caoimhe Costelloe is really on top of her game, she has got over 70 per cent of Limerick's scores. Waterford are going to have to keep a very close eye on her."
