Corner back Fionn Fitzgerald is the only newcomer on the Kerry team named to play Tipperary in their Munster SFC quarter-final.

Manager Éamonn Fitzmaurice has included twelve players that featured in last year's All-Ireland quarter-final defeat to eventual winners Donegal.

A thigh injury has ruled captain Eoin Brosnan out of the starting line-up. His Dr Crokes club-mate Colm Cooper will skipper the Kingdom.

Bryan Sheehan and Darran O'Sullivan are among the substitutes.
