Punters backing a Leinster double in All-Ireland club finals

The betting public are backing a Leinster double in the All Ireland club hurling and football finals this Sunday at Croke Park.

Kilmacud Crokes lead the Leinster charge in the football final against Glen, while Ballyhale Shamrocks are representing Leinster in the hurling final against Dunloy.

According to Ladbrokes, punters believe Crokes (4/7) and Ballyhale (1/10) are destined to take home the trophies.

Last season, Crokes made it to the final only to fall at the final hurdle to Kilcoo of Down. This term however, they have been in impressive form, with Shane Walsh leading the charge on many occasions.

In the final, Crokes come up against Glen (15/8) who are big underdogs in their first ever final.

Ballyhale are far and away favourites for the hurling crown. Their opponents, Dunloy of Antrim, are heavy underdogs at 13/2.

Commenting on the Leinster sides being hot favourites, Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said, "All roads lead to Croker this Sunday for the Club All-Ireland senior finals.

"If the odds are anything to go by, a Leinster double could be on the cards with Kilmacud Croke’s best backed for the football and Ballyhale Shamrocks the overwhelming favourites for the hurling."
