Summer signings including Mathew Tait, Kieran Brookes and Julian Salvi are in line for their home debuts for Leicester Tigers in this Saturday's pre-season fixture against Lyon (2pm).

Director of rugby Richard Cockerill has confirmed that all three will be included in the matchday squad as Tigers fine-tune preparations for the new season.

“It’s always great to be back at Welford Road and this is an attractive game against opposition who won promotion to the Top 14 in France last season and have been preparing well for their own season,” said Cockerill.

“Our new players have integrated pretty well during the summer and I’m sure they’re looking forward to running out at Welford Road as Leicester Tigers players.”

Admission to Saturday’s match at Welford Road is included in Tigers season tickets. Holders should use their existing match access cards or new ones if you have received them in the last couple of weeks.

Tickets are available now and up to kick-off from the Tigers ticket office for all other supporters. Phone 0844 856 1880, call in at Welford Road or book online.

Turnstiles and public bars around the ground are open from noon.
