The draw for the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship quarter-finals has been made, with Tipperary to face Waterford and Dublin pitted against Cork.
The Déise and the Rebels came through the qualifiers, beating Clare and Galway respectively on Saturday afternoon.
Meanwhile, Tipp and Dublin come into the ties off the back of provincial final defeats.
The meeting of Munster rivals Tipp and Waterford will be the first knockout championship clash between the sides since the 2010 All-Ireland semi-final. Déise boss Liam Cahill will be plotting the downfall of his native county, coming up against the Premier in the championship for the first time.
Cork have had Dublin's number in recent years, and the men from the capital have not trumped the Leesiders in championship hurling since 1927.
Limerick and Kilkenny await the winners in the semi-finals, with repeat pairings set to be avoided if possible.
Dublin vs Cork will be live on Sky Sports Arena from 6pm Saturday, and will take place at Semple Stadium. Earlier that afternoon, Tipperary vs Waterford will throw in at 1:30pm in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
