What time and TV channel is Kildare v Fermanagh on today in the Tailteann Cup?

Having shaken off Offaly and with Westmeath falling unexpectedly to Wicklow, a consensus that this is Kildare's competition to lose has emerged. It's a dangerous line of thinking given their inability to turn promise into silverware at senior level and Fermanagh won't be cowed by them. It's ideally set up for Kieran Donnelly's side and it would hardly register as a shock if they pulled it off, but Kildare get a hesitant vote. Verdict: Kildare Where is the game being played? The game is being played at Croke Park. What time is throw-in? Throw in is at 4pm. Can I watch the game on TV? Yes, the game will be live on RTÉ 2 with coverage starting at 1.30pm for the Limerick-Wicklow game. Is the game being streamed online? Yes, it will be streamed live on the RTÉ Player. Betting Odds: Kildare: 1/2 Draw: 9/1 Fermanagh: 2/1
