Harlequins Team News for Prem Rugby Cup

Harlequins have made six changes to the starting XV that will take on Leicester Tigers in Round 2 of the PREM Rugby Cup at The Stoop (Friday 19 September, 19:45).

The Quarters welcome back experience to the pack with Harry Williams set to make his first competitive appearance at tighthead since landing in TW2 this summer.

Fellow summer signing, Kieran Treadwell has been selected in the engine room, while Jack Kenningham and Will Evans will start at blindside and openside flanker.

Jarrod Evans returns to the starting XV to marshall the Quarters at fly-half and Tyrone Green will line up in the back field at full-back on Friday night.

George Turner is set for his first appearance for Quins after being named an impact player for Friday night's contest.

Harlequins Defence Coach, Jason Gilmore said: "It's always a battle with Leicester, they're a very direct team. They base themselves on their set-piece and their physicality and they take a lot of pride in their aerial kicking game.

"We're back in front of home fans this week and want to put in a performance that will allow us to build momentum as the start of the Gallagher PREM season approaches."
