Kildare ladies unchanged for National League clash with Down this weekend

Kildare ladies football manager Daniel Moynihan has gone with the same starting 15 from last Monday's defeat to Meath to take on Down in this weekend's Lidl NFL Division 3 clash.

The Lilywhites lost to the Royals on Bank Holiday Monday on a scoreline of 2-12 to 0-8, but the same side has been named to take on Down in the sixth round of the league in the Abbey Grammar School at 2pm on Sunday.

Kildare sit fifth in the table behind Down, Wexford, Roscommon and Meath, but a victory at the weekend could see them push all the way up into the top two if other results go their way.
