L/R: UL Bohemian Captain Ian Condell and Garryowen Captain Neil Cronin

The teams have been confirmed ahead of tonight’s Bank of Ireland Munster Senior Challenge Cup Final at Markets Field (kick-off 7.30pm).

UL Bohemian and Garryowen will go head-to-head as two of Limerick’s traditional rivals, having only met once before in the final with Garryowen emerging victorious in 1926.

UL Bohemian will be aiming to bridge a 56-year gap and claim the trophy for the fifth time in their illustrious history.

They take on Garryowen; who lead the role of honours list and will hope to bring their tally of Cup successes to 39 and whoever wins will break the stranglehold of Cork Constitution who won the previous five finals.
