The game will likely be played in Austin Stack Park in Tralee, where the Black and Gold outfit defeated their Tralee neighbours Kerins O’Rahillys in the Kerry final on Sunday.

Newcastle West also had home advantage when they beat the Nire in the provincial quarter-final.

Interestingly, Stacks were at home in their previous Munster semi-final as they beat Ballincolig in the 2014 championship before going on to claim provincial honours.

Newcastle West, in their fifth ever venture into the Munster championship will be seeking a second final berth, reaching the decider on their first attempt in 1987.
