The attendance for Saturday's Guinness Premiership Final between Leicester Tigers and London Wasps will be the largest ever for a club match in world rugby.
A crowd of 81,076 watched the same two teams in the Heineken Cup Final at the same stadium last season but the gate at the Guinness Premiership Final will surpass that this weekend.

The previous best for a Premiership Final was 66,000 when these two teams met in 2005. Capacity at Twickenham is a mixture of seating tickets and hospitality. The seated capacity of the bowl of the stadium is 78,500. The extra 3,100 capacity is made up of hospitality seats, media seating and so on, taking the capacity up to 81,600.
Club rugby's world record crowd also means the attendance at Twickenham will beat the 69,000 that watched footballs Champions League Final in Moscow ten days ago.
No tickets are available for purchase on the day.
