Leicester Tigers Face Bristol Bears in Premiership Clash

This weekend, the Gallagher Premiership Rugby season enters its final matches before Christmas, with one of the standout games being the clash between Leicester Tigers and Bristol Bears. The match is set to take place at Mattioli Woods Welford Road on December 21.

Leicester Tigers are looking to bounce back from their recent defeat at Sale, which ended their four-game winning streak. The Tigers have a strong home record, having lost only one of their last four Premiership Rugby matches at Welford Road, which was a 15-20 defeat to Bath on September 29.

Bristol Bears, on the other hand, are in top form and have been playing some impressive rugby. They have won on three of their last six visits to Leicester, and their only defeat in the last four encounters with the Tigers was a 24-46 loss at Welford Road in March 2023.

Key players to watch include AJ MacGinty, who returns for Bristol, and Leicester's Cameron Henderson and Ben Youngs, who are in the starting lineup. The battle at fly-half between MacGinty and Handre Pollard is expected to be a highlight of the match.

The festive atmosphere will be alive off the field, with live music, the Junior Tigers Club, and Santa's Grotto opening before the match. The kick-off is scheduled for 35 PM GMT, with referee Hamish Smales overseeing the game.
