England lock Geoff Parling is set to start Leicester Tigers' Aviva Premiership clash with Gloucester at Welford Road tomorrow (5pm).
After a hectic spell of international rugby with England and back-to-back Heineken Cup games against Treviso, Parling was rested for last week's Premiership game at London Irish.
His return is the only change to the starting line-up as Tigers prepare for a key game against Gloucester, who are fourth in the table just a place and two points adrift of Leicester.
The fixture will see Tigers fly-half Toby Flood makes his 100th Premiership appearance, while Steve Mafi is named among the replacements on his return to the squad for the first time since suffering a knee injury in the win over Northampton Saints in November.
