GAA preview: Where to watch this weekend's action

It is a busy weekend of GAA action, with important games in the hurling and football championships across this weekend.

In hurling, it is the second round of the Munster hurling championship, as Cork take on Limerick in a repeat of the Division 1A final earlier this month.

Limerick were the winners that day, and will go in with confidence as they get their championship underway.

Cork got their campaign underway with a win over Tipperary, in a repeat of last season's All-Ireland final.

The last time these sides met in the championship was the Munster final, where Cork won on penalties.

After defeats for both sides last weekend, Tipperary and Waterford will meet in a must-win game for both teams.

In Leinster, Kilkenny will be hoping to bounce back from their defeat to Galway when they take on Wexford.

After their thrilling draw against Offaly, Dublin take on Kildare, while Galway face the Royal County.

In football, Mayo take on rivals Roscommon in the Connacht semi-finals, with Leitrim hoping to build on their win over Sligo when they face Galway.

The Ulster championship will see Donegal get their championship underway against Down, while Armagh face Fermanagh.
