Book now for Tigers v Leeds Carnegie

Figure image
There is still time to book your tickets for Saturday's Aviva Premiership Rugby fixture between Leicester Tigers and Leeds Carnegie. Kick-off is at 3pm at Welford Road.

The opening home game of the season produced a seven-try thriller as Tigers clinched a 37-27 victory over Premiership newcomers Exeter Chiefs, with the bonus-point score coming in the last play of the game.

Another seven tries were shared in Saturday’s trip to London Wasps, with Tigers claiming two bonus points in a narrow defeat.

World Cup winner Neil Back brings his Leeds Carnegie side to Welford Road looking to build on last season’s performances which established the Yorkshiremen back in the top flight after winning the Championship a year earlier.

“It’s tough sometimes being the team everybody wants to be beat, but we are used to that and we have to deal with it," said Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill.

"We’re not far off in terms of the level of performance, we've just got to do things more consistently well over the full 80 minutes. We’re scoring plenty of tries, but we need to control possession better.”

Tickets for Saturday’s game are available now.

Call the Tigers ticket hotline on 0844 856 1880, visit the ticket office at Welford Road (open until 5pm Friday and from 9am on Saturday) or book online by clicking here and then collect on the day.
