Galway have named an unchanged team for tomorrow's All-Ireland SHC quarter-final against Clare.

The Tribesmen were well beaten by Kilkenny in the Leinster final three weeks ago, but manager Micheal Donoghue has kept faith with the same XV. That means Gearoid McInerney, who was a late replacement for Fergal Moore, retains his place in a half back line which also includes Daithi Burke, who has recovered from the finger injury he sustained against the Cats.

David Burke and Davy Glennon continue their midfield partnership while Joe Canning is at wing forward.

Galway (SH v Clare): Colm Callanan; Johnny Coen, John Hanbury, Padraic Mannion; Gearoid McInerney, Daithi Burke, Aidan Harte; David Burke (captain), Davy Glennon; Conor Cooney, Joseph Cooney, Joe Canning; Conor Whelan, Niall Burke, Cathal Mannion.
