Figure image
Leicester Tigers will welcome Sale Sharks on the weekend of October 31/November 1/2 in their only home tie in the EDF Energy Cup next season.

Tigers open their cup campaign away to Bath Rugby and also face a trip to Cardiff Blues before welcoming Sale Sharks in Pool B.

Last season, Tigers picked up a valuable bonus point in defeat at Bath but beat the Blues and Sale at Welford Road before overcoming London Wasps in the semi-final.

Tigers have reached the final of the EDF Energy Cup in each of the last two seasons, picking up the trophy in 2007.

Specific dates and kick-off times for matches are still to be confirmed between the clubs, tournament organisers and broadcasters. Match ticket details will also be announced soon, please check the Tigers official website for updates.
