CORK will be without Declan Dalton for the visit of Limerick to Pรกirc Uรญ Chaoimh for Saturday nightโ€™s glamour National Hurling League tie.

Dalton and home captain Rory Oโ€™Conner were red-carded in Corkโ€™s runaway win at Wexford (Limerick had a bye).

By his departure midway through the closing-half, Dalton had scored a hugely impressive 1-5.

Next weekendโ€™s fixture is likely to attract an attendance well north of 20,000 to Leeside.
