Following a first home win of the season, against Gloucester in cup action last week, and an impressive bonus-point win over Aviva Premiership rivals Sale Sharks on Friday evening, Tigers return to home soil for a vital clash with London Irish on Bonfire Night.
Rugby World Cup stars Alesana Tuilagi, Martin Castrogiovanni, Toby Flood and Marcos Ayerza were the try-scorers in the 34-13 victory at Sale in Round 7, but Tigers know there can be no let-up when Irish arrive at Welford Road next Saturday.
Kick-off is at 3.05pm, with the fireworks display scheduled immediately following the final whistle.
Match tickets are available now, book in person at the Tigers ticket office, by phone or online.
Supporters are reminded that Arriva are running rugby buses to home game from Oakham/Uppingham and Market Harborough. Return tickets cost £5 adults, £4 concessions and can be booked in advance at the Arriva travel shop in St Margaret's Bus Station by phoning 0116 242 3670 or email [email protected] or turn up on time and pay on the bus.
There's more to come at Welford Road too with the opening home in the Heineken Cup against Ulster on November 19 (6pm) and then Tigers host derby rivals Northampton Saints in an Aviva Premiership on Saturday, December 3 (2.15pm). Tickets for all home fixtures are available now.
