Two sides with table-topping ambitions go head to head at Welford Road on Saturday as Leicester Tigers entertain Saracens in the Aviva Premiership.
Second-placed Sarries are two points off leaders Harlequins, while the Tigers are one point behind their opponents this weekend.
The hosts have made a total of six changes as George Ford, Matt Smith, Dan Bowden, Geordan Murphy, Tom Croft and Ed Slater all come into the team.
Meanwhile, Toby Flood and Manu Tuilaigi miss out because of England duty.
Chris Wyles, Richard Wigglesworth and Alistair Hargreaves are among five new faces for the visitors.
