Figure image
Leicester Tigers continue their defence of the Aviva Premiership 'A' League title with a trip to face Worcester Cavaliers this evening.

The Tigers team includes George Ford, Micky Young, Graham Kitchener and Ben Pienaar, as well as Samoan prop Logovi’i Mulipola who makes his first ‘A’ League appearance for the club.

The 24-year-old Mulipola was a member of the Samoa squad at this year’s Rugby World Cup, playing as a replacement in the game against South Africa.

Worcester Cavaliers include former Tigers fly-half Andy Goode and Fiji international Ravai Fatiaki as they look to build on victories over Leeds Carnegie and Sale Jets this season.

Admission at Sixways is £3 adults, free for juniors. Car parking is available on a first-come, first-parked basis.

Tigers’ next home game in the competition is against Sale Jets on Monday, December 5 (7.30pm).
