Kildare come into this game both buoyed by an impressive showing away to Waterford and gutted by the concession of a late goal that cost them all three points in that game. Attention now turns to Kerry who have slowly slid into this relegation battle themselves who, as seen above, sit just a point above Kildare and two above bottom-placed Dublin.
This is a straight shootout with a draw going in favour of the visitors who have lost their last three, albeit against the top two and a solid Armagh outfit. Much like their male counterparts last week, the message for The Lilies is simple, this game win or bust. One advantage Pat Sullivan's side do hold however is not needing results elsewhere to go their way, win and they have secured Division 1 football for another year.
