In the championship this year O’Rahillys dispatched of Milltown in the losers round at home.
After beating West Kerry in the opening round, Laune Rangers shipped a heavy beating from Kenmare District to put them in trouble.
Both Tralee sides will be favourites, Laune Rangers have not made an impact in the county championship in a number of years and are plying their trade in Division Two of the County League. Milltown have proved sticky opposition and have are tough nut to crack for any of the bigger clubs.
Relegation will be a bitter pill to swallow for any of the sides, so it should make for a full-on committed performances.
