Openside flanker Ben Woods has been sidelined after suffering a broken wrist.
The Leicester Tigers back-rower was involved in the matchday squad for eight of the opening nine games of the season but has not played since the Aviva Premiership defeat at Gloucester two weeks ago.

"Ben had a bit of soreness in his wrist but the break was quite difficult to pick up on the scans,” said director of rugby Richard Cockerill.
“It’s a blow for Ben because he has been playing well and it’s hard for us too with some massive games coming up in the league and in Europe.”
