Geoff Parling says Leicester Tigers will look to play their own game when they take on Leeds Carnegie in the Guinness Premiership on Sunday.

Parling has been named in the second row for the game and says Leeds will be "fighting for their lives".

"We have to go there and do our things right," said England Saxons cap Parling. "As a group of players we have to go and play our game.

"Leeds are fighting for their lives and they will be a tough and resilient team.

"I have been in that position before when you are fighting for your lives and there is nothing better for you than putting down a marker and beating the teams at the top."

Parling added: "Our last away game in the league was at Saracens and we did a good job down there and now we have to play our game."
