Bristol unchanged for Ashton Gate clash

Figure image
Bristol Rugby have named an unchanged starting line up for their Guinness Premiership clash with Tigers at Ashton Gate on Tuesday evening.

Whereas Pat Howard has made 13 changes from the side that beat Llanelli Scarlets on Saturday, Bristol head coach Richard Hill keeps faith with the starting line up that defeated Worcester at the Memorial Stadium on Easter weekend.

Bristol currently occupy fifth place in the Guinness Premiership table, one spot outside the playoff places, but just one point behind fourth placed London Wasps and with a superior number of league wins.

The only change to the matchday 22 sees All Black David Hill named on the bench after more than two months on the sidelines having suffered a compound fracture of his little finger in the victory over Newcastle Falcons on February 18.

Bristol Rugby

Luke Arscott, Lee Robinson, Neil Brew, Sam Cox, David Lemi, Danny Gray, Shaun Perry, Dave Hilton, Mark Regan, Darren Crompton, Roy Winters, Gareth Llewellyn (capt), Alfie To'oala, Joe El Abd, Andrew Blowers

Replacements

Scott Linklater, Alex Clarke, Sean Hohneck, Nathan Budgett, Greg Nicholls, David Hill, Brian Lima
