Waterford boss Benji Whelan has chosen an unchanged team for today's All-Ireland SFC qualifiers round 1 clash with Westmeath in Mullingar (throw-in 3pm).

The Deise very nearly pulled off an upset over Clare in the Munster quarter-final last time out in Ennis where they were only beaten by a point in the end having trailed by six at the break. Whelan's men will be buoyed by their second-half performance against the Banner County as they head to a Cusack Park venue for the second time in four weeks.

Waterford (All-Ireland SFC v Westmeath): Darren Mulhearne; Sean O'Donovan, Ray O Ceallaigh, James McGrath; Brian Looby, Shane Ryan, Tadhg O'hUallachain; Shane Ahearne, Tommy Prendergast; Sean Whelan Barrett, Dylan Guiry, Conor Murray; Jack Mullaney, Fearghal O'Cuirrin, Michael Curry.
