Preview: Leicester Tigers vs. London Wasps

Leicester vs. Wasps

Leicester Tigers will be looking to close the gap to league leaders Saracens when they host London Wasps in the Aviva Premiership tomorrow.

The home side have made one change to the side that lost to Toulon in the Heineken Cup last weekend, with Logovi'i Mulipola replacing Marcos Ayerza at prop.

Meanwhile, Wasps are without several of their first-choice players because of a host of injuries, including Hugo Southwell, Stephen Jones and Phil Swainston.

The visitors have also chosen to rest Joe Launchbury and Andrea Masi, following a busy Six Nations and domestic period in recent weeks.
