Leicester Tigers 28-3 Bath

Leicester Tigers beat Bath 28-3 to secure their place in the playoffs.

Leicester Tigers have beaten Bath 28-3 to secure their place in the playoffs at Welford Road this afternoon.

Tigers fly-half Toby Flood handed the hosts an early three-point lead, but struggled to break through Bath's defence for the remainder of the first half of action.

Substitute Billy Twelvetrees doubled Leicester's lead in the opening stages of the second half, before Bath's Olly Barkley responded in kind.

Anthony Allen struck back by scoring a try for the Tigers to establish their largest lead of the afternoon on the hour.

With 10 minutes to go, Twelvetrees increased the deficit with his second three points of the game.

He then added a couple of extra points to his tally by converting a penalty try for the Tigers, before Horacio Agulla completed the scoring with a late five points for the hosts.
