Kevin Foley of Wexford looks to block Kilkenny's Richie Leahy

Martin Keoghan and Richie Leahy are part of two changes to the Kilkenny attack for Sunday's Allianz HL clash with Clare in Ennis.

A late withdrawal before last weekend's opening round win over Cork, Keoghan is named at wing-forward while Richie Leahy, who was called upon early against the Rebels and made a vital contribution, starts at corner-forward. Ger Malone and Luke Scanlon are demoted to the bench.

Kilkenny (Allianz HL v Clare): Eoin Murphy; Paul Murphy, Huw Lawlor, Tommy Walsh; Conor Delaney, Paddy Deegan, Enda Morrissey; James Maher, Conor Fogarty; John Donnelly, Ger Aylward, Martin Keoghan; Billy Ryan, Kevin Kelly, Richie Leahy.

Subs: Darren Brennan, Robert Lennon, Conor O'Shea, Padraig Walsh, Conor Browne, Jason Cleere, Ger Malone, Luke Scanlon, Liam Blanchfield, Pat Lyng, Conor Martin.
