Hello and welcome to tonight’s liveblog. Old foes Kerry and Cork do battle for Munster U21 football honours in Austin Stack Park, Tralee from 7.30pm.

Cork are in their fifth successive provincial final at this level while the Kingdom are in their first decider since 2012, and they are without a title since 2008.

Sean Hayes’ Cork side comfortably saw off the challenges of Clare and Waterford en route to the final while Kerry had tougher tests against Tipperary and Limerick.

Here is a reminder of the teams that were named earlier in the week, although we are expecting some late changes.

We’ll update the line-ups once we get official confirmation.
