For the upcoming quarterfinal game, Leicester Tigers have prepared themselves to outperform Leinster at the Tiger’s Stadium. With a spot in the Champions Cup semi-final on the line, Leinster faces a tough trip to the Tiger’s den. The Blues won their first European title in 2009, defeating Leicester in the final after shocking their fiercest rivals Munster, in the quarterfinals at Croke Park.

The front row starts with Ellis Genge, Julián Montoya, and Dan Cole. Genge will lead Leicester Tigers into the championship quarterfinals for the first time in six seasons. Ollie Chessum returns in the second row with Calum Green, while vice-captain Hanro Liebenberg, Tommy Reffell, and Jasper Wiese make up the starting back row. Replacement front-rowers are Nic Dolly, James Whitcombe, and Joe Heyes, with Harry Wells and George Martin on the bench. Leicester starts Ben Youngs and George Ford at halfback, with Guy Porter and Matas Moroni in the midfield. Though Tigers lost to London Irish and Harlequin, they possess a threat while playing at home.

Leinster- Can Make an Impact and Surprise the Hosts
Going in the game, Leinster lost to Stormers (20-13) and Sharks (28-23). However, they will be taking confidence from the wins against Connacht Rugby (56-20) and Munster (19-34). James Ryan has returned to the second row for tomorrow’s game, which is great news for the squad. The lock hasn’t played for the province since October’s match against the Scarlets, although he did play internationally until an injury ruled him out of the Six Nations. He joins a front five that includes Rónan Kelleher, who has returned from a shoulder injury. It will be a tough challenge for Leinster; however, they can outplay the Tigers.
Key Players for Leinster
- J. Sexton (C)
- Garry Ringrose
- Tadhg Furlong
- Jack Conan
- Ross Molony
