After victories in the opening two fixtures in Pool 3, against The Ospreys at home and Benetton Treviso away, Tigers lock horns with Perpignan in back-to-back clashes just eight days apart.
Two-time European champions Leicester enjoy home advantage first this Saturday (5.30pm kick-off) before travelling to the south of France for the return match.
Perpignan, who now welcome All Blacks fly-half Dan Carter to their squad after his starring role in the autumn internationals, moved up to the third in France’s Top 14 after a ninth win in their first 12 fixtures last weekend.
European competition has produced a series of thrillers at Welford Road over the years, including a number of classic encounters with French opposition.
The last-gasp win over Stade Francais in 2005/06 when Tigers scored two tries in the last six minutes of the match was one such occasion, and then there was the quarter-final win over the same opponents on an electric afternoon at Welford Road in 2006/07 and the hard-earned victory over three-time winners Toulouse last season.
