The opening weekend of the Allianz Hurling League will see the return of Saturday GAA Live on RTÉ2 and RTÉ Player, and with it the clash of Limerick and Tipperary.

Coverage, hosted by Joanne Cantwell, begins at 5pm, with a throw-in time of 5.30pm at the LIT Gaelic Grounds.

The defending league and All-Ireland champions will play host to Liam Sheedy's side in a top-flight encounter.

It's the first of three live games on RTÉ Sport in May, with Tipperary then hosting Cork in the hurling league on Saturday, 15 May, and Donegal welcoming Monaghan to Ballybofey for a Division 1 football tie on Saturday, 22 May.

Allianz League Sunday, with a round-up of all the weekend's action, also returns on Sunday, 9 May.
