Former Leicester Tigers back row Paul Gustard has been called into the Saracens side for Sunday's Guinness Premiership match against his old club.
Director of rugby Alan Gaffney has made just one change to his starting line-up following the win at Worcester Warriors last weekend, with the 31-year-old Gustard returning from injury to claim a place at blindside flanker for the Tigers encounter at Vicarage Road.
