Conor O’Sullivan comes in at corner-back instead of Damien Cahalane in the only change from the starting side that lost to Kilkenny last weekend.
Opponents Tipperary have made four alterations. In defence James Barry starts for the first time since the league opener against Dublin while Conor O’Brien gets his first start of this campaign.
In attack John O’Dwyer is also recalled to the starting fifteen at wing-forward while Kieran Morris from Moycarkey-Borris makes his league debut at right corner-forward.
Tomas Hamill, Michael Cahill, Kieran Bergin and Dan McCormack are the players to make way.
