Selector Tommy Corbett says Clare will be treating Sunday’s All-Ireland SHC final like any other game.
There is huge hype in both Clare and Cork ahead of the decider with Corbett insisting that the Banner are focused on the job in hand.
“When an All-Ireland comes around you have to embrace it, you can't shy away and hide in the corner without getting caught up in it as well," he told gaa.ie
"There's a fine balance. The weight of expectation and that type of thing, I'm not sure, it's a different All-Ireland this year in that there's two new teams in it this year.
"I know we met 11 years ago, but apart from Kilkenny, Galway, Tipp and Limerick, obviously, we're two new teams. We've both had a bit of a famine so this will bring something different, but we're going to approach it like any other game.
"It's four white lines and two goalposts, it's still a grass pitch at the end of the day."
