Leicester Tigers have made three changes to their starting XV for the clash, as Logovi'i Mulipola, Vereniki Goneva and Peter Betham are all recalled to the starting line-up. Mulipola comes into the front row alongside Marcos Ayerza and hooker Harry Thacker, in an otherwise unchanged forward pack from last weekend's win over London Irish. Betham links up with England international Manu Tuilagi in the midfield, while Goneva wears the No 11 jersey. Fly-half Owen Williams is included among the replacements in his first appearance in a Leicester match-day squad since fracturing his jaw in the Tigers' derby win over Northampton in January

It's an all-new front row for Exeter as Moray Low and Tomas Francis return from international duty with Scotland and Wales respectively, while skipper Jack Yeandle slots in between them in the No 2 berth. Former Tiger Julian Salvi returns to the side in the back row at the expense another ex-Leicester player Thomas Waldrom, who has been given the weekend off.
