1️⃣ Tip 1 - Limerick to win

John Kiely and his Limerick side were toppled by Cork in a wonderful semi-final at Croke Park in 2024. It was a herculean effort from the Rebels to get the better of their nearest neighbours and Limerick's re-ignited hunger after surrendering their crown will make them a dangerous animal. They rightly top the All-Ireland SHC hurling betting with BoyleSports at 2.50.

⭐ All Ireland Hurling Championship Betting Markets

✔️ Outright Betting

Outright betting is settled on the eventual winner once the All-Ireland hurling games are completed and one team is left holding the coveted Liam McCarthy Cup. Punters can bet on this market both to win and each-way, with the latter routinely paying out partial odds on the losing finalists. Assessing factors like player performance and historical data to help select the team you believe will come out on the top alongside expert All-Ireland hurling championship betting tips.

✔️ Over/Under Market

The Over/Under Market for All-Ireland hurling bets refers to goals and/or points scored in any specific game on which GAA betting is offered. Individual bookmakers will set a threshold for total goals or points in the game, and punters can elect to bet on Over/Under this benchmark based on analysis of what they expect to happen during the 70 minutes.

✔️ Accumulator Bets

Accumulator bets could involve a series of games on a busy weekend of action, where punters will attempt several All-Ireland SHC predictions based on form and analysis of individual games. They might decide to bet on three or more teams to win in an accumulator and, if each team wins, their winning returns should be decent.

✔️ Total Points Over/Under

The total points over/under market allows you to predict whether the cumulative points scored in a match will surpass or fall below a predetermined benchmark set by the bookmaker. This is a useful market for punters when they aren't convinced on which team will win the match, but they have a theory on what time of game it will be. An attacking contest would be best to bet Total Points Over the threshold, while a more negative game in prospect would be best going Under.

⭐ All Ireland Hurling Championship Schedule 2025

The All-Ireland Hurling Championship Schedule 2025 has yet to be released by the GAA but, once more, the Championship will begin in mid-April or early May and the All-Ireland Final will be at Croke Park near the end of July.

🏁 History of the All-Ireland Hurling Championships

Hurling is a cornerstone of the Gaelic Athletic Association and one of Ireland's treasured national pastimes. Historians have traced the game back to the 11th century, though the formation of the GAA in 1884 is where it dates to in its most recognisable form. From there, the All-Ireland SHC was born and it remains to this day as the pinnacle of the ancient sport. The Liam McCarthy Cup is the most coveted prize of all, with Kilkenny leading the way with 36 wins, six more than Cork and eight ahead of Tipperary. Limerick enjoyed a recent golden era, winning four titles in a row from 2020-2023 but they were dethroned as Clare won the 2024 All-Ireland Final, beating Cork at Croke Park after extra time.

📑All Ireland Hurling Championships Format

The All-Ireland Hurling Championship is a culmination following the Leinster and Munster provincials and the Joe McDonagh Cup. The champions from Leinster and Munster go straight to the All-Ireland semi-finals, with the beaten provincial finalists heading to the All-Ireland quarter-finals. The Joe McDonagh Cup champions and runners-up advance to the All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals. The preliminary quarter-finals are also contested by the third-placed teams from Leinster and Munster. From there it is straight knockout hurling to secure and All-Ireland Final spot and the chance to hoist the Liam McCarthy Cup on the steps of the Hogan Stand in Croke Park. No changes to current format are planned for 2025.

📑 Past All Ireland Hurling Championships Winners

Kilkenny lead the All-Ireland roll of honours with the Cats have triumphed 36 times in total. Their nearest rivals are Cork, though the Leesiders haven't lifted the cup since 2005, while Kilkenny's last win was 2015. Tipperary (28) are next best with the Premier County well ahead of Limerick (12), the only other team in double figures. Limerick's quest for an historic 'five-in-a-row' was derailed by Cork at the semi-final stage in 2024, though the Rebels were then turned over themselves by Clare in a pulsating final that went to extra-time before the Banner won their fifth crown.
