Leicester Tigers have already qualified for a thirteenth Premiership Rugby semi-final but their first since 2017, and their first at home since 2013. In the grand scheme of things, they require the 3 points to secure the top spot as they look to fend off second-place Saracens who are just 3 points behind, and to revive a 20-year-old feat in the form of going unbeaten at home the whole season. They have also only lost once in their last 5 premiership rugby matches against Harlequins (20-26) in round 23 at the Twickenham Stoop. The last club to beat them in Premiership Rugby at Mattioli Woods Welford Road was Bristol Bears in Round 21 last season.

Key players for Leicester Tigers

  • Ellis Genge
  • Dan Cole
  • George Ford
  • Ben Youngs
  • Jasper Wiese

The wasps are currently on their best away run since the February of 2021 being unbeaten in their last 2 matches and should be looking to continue that as they visit the Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium. Their defeat to Sale last time out in round 25 (7-16) ended a four-game unbeaten run they had going and will have been righty disappointed. As for their chances against the league leaders, they are one of the only 4 teams to have beaten them this season and will be looking to complete an impressive league double against them come tomorrow. Historically though, the Wasps’ have had a tough time with their only victory at the home of the Leicester Tigers since 2008 was back in 2016 with a 34-22 away win. 

Key players for London Wasps

  • Joe Launchbury
  • Jack Willis
  • Brad Shields
  • Dan Robson
  • Paolo Odogwu

One should be expecting a nervous encounter given the conditions surrounding this matchup but we should also be seeing a game that could show us why the Tigers are top of the table and have been unbeaten all season at home while it could also go the way as the supposed underdogs of this fixture who will look to prove why they are one of the only four teams to hand the Tigers defeat this season. 

  • Leicester tiger to win for 1.3
  • Total over 62 for 2.1
  • London Wasps to win race to 10 points for 2.5
