Ospreys have announced their team for Friday's pre-season fixture against Leicester Tigers at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea.

Head coach Steve Tandy told the club website www.ospreysrugby.com: “We haven’t had a pre-season game at the Liberty for a few years so we are looking forward to this one.
 
“This is the start of the final phase of our prep, with two games against Leicester, one of the leading clubs in Europe, sandwiching what should be a good training week in Belgium.
 
“It’s an important game for us as we want to build for the opening weekend of the PRO12 in a few weeks.”
 
Kick-off on Friday is at 7.15pm. Tickets are available from the host club.
 
The Ospreys travel to Welford Road for the return fixture on Friday, August 26 in the final match before the start of league competition. Entry to this fixture is included in Tigers season tickets. Match tickets for all other supporters are available now. Book at Welford Road, phone 0116 319 8888 or click here to purchase online.
