The Tipperary–Limerick fixture has been one of the biggest clashes in Munster hurling history. This fixture has provided the closest and most exciting matches, including the three game saga in 2007, which Limerick finally won in the third game in extra-time by 3 points.[1]
The rivalry has lasted, due to both teams success in the Munster and All Ireland Senior Championships. These two teams have given us great games, the 1973 Munster final and the 3 game saga of 2007 come to mind straight away. As does the 1996 Munster Final, which resulted in 2 memorable games. The present situation is in favour of Limerick where Tipp have not beaten them in the Championship since 2019.
