Casey O'Brien is confident that Wicklow will eliminate Kildare from the Christy Ring Cup.

Sunday's quarter-final at Arklow will be the third competitive meeting of the teams this year and they are currently deadlocked at one win apiece.

But Garden County boss O'Brien believes his charges will prevail in the most-important clash of all:

"I expect to beat them," he states in The Wicklow People. "It's going to be tough but we didn't play well against them when we won in Croke Park and Christy Moorehouse was sent off in the wrong against them in Tullamore."

As for Andy O'Brien's staggering 3-10 haul against Mayo last weekend, the Wicklow manager enthuses: "It was one of the best exhibitions of hurling I have ever seen." Tweet
