Both sides are chasing a place in the Aviva Premiership semi-finals, with Tigers going into the game third in the table and Saints just behind in fourth.
Tigers have won their last four games against Saints but have not been victorious at Franklin’s Gardens since 2006.
Parling said: “They are a quality team, they are playing at home and they are trying to cement a semi-final position so it is not going to be easy.
“Northampton is always a difficult game. We know we are going to have to be right at the top of our game.”
