LAST SIXTEEN pairings have been finalised for the Ennis Carpets Clare Cup.

Bridge Utd’s 4-0 win over Lifford FC eliminated last year’s beaten finalists but also ensured they were the last team to qualify for the third round.

Five fixtures are down for decision this Sunday in the Clare Cup. Mark Culbert’s Bridge Utd side make the short trip to Lynch Park to face Shannon Town Utd (2pm).

David Russell’s Avenue who recorded a 10-0 win over Coole FC face off with Tulla Utd in Roslevan (11am) while Lees Rd Astro (2pm) is the setting for what could be a tight affair between Ennis Dons and Fern Celtic.

In Lahinch (11am), Sporting Ennistymon will bid to take down Premier Division side Kilrush Rangers while Inch Crusaders fresh from overcoming Connolly Celtic in the second round play Avenue Utd B in Lees Rd (2pm).

Meanwhile on Sunday, Newmarket Celtic will look to add more silverware to the trophy cabinet when they meet an in-form Villa FC in Fermoy at 3pm in the Munster Champions Trophy Final.
