Cork will open their All-Ireland hurling defence against Clare in this weekend's Munster semi-final with the same team which featured in last year's final win against Galway.
Manager John Allen's biggest concern for the Thurles showdown was the return of Ben O'Connor but the influential forward has recovered in time from a hamstring injury to take his place as the left wing forward.
The unchanged line-up is also the same side which beat Clare in last year's semi-final. Clare are seeking their first win over Cork since 1998, having lost the two other previous meetings in 1999 and 2003.
Clare will finalise their team after training tomorrow.
Cork: D Og Cusack; P Mulcahy, D O'Sullivan, B Murphy; J Gardiner, R Curran, S Og O hAilpin; T Kenny, J O'Connor; T McCarthy, N McCarthy, B O'Connor; K Murphy, B Corcoran, J Deane
