Leicester Tigers will be unchanged for tomorrow's crunch Aviva Premiership clash with Northampton Saints.
Director of rugby Richard Cockerill has named the same 23 players for the derby encounter who were on duty for last week's narrow 12-9 win over Exeter Chiefs.
Fly-half Toby Flood will again captain the Tigers, who are looking for a seventh consecutive win over their neighbours and rivals.
Tom Wood will start at No.8 for Saints, one of two changes to the side that claimed a last-gasp 26-24 win at Wasps last week. The other sees centre Tom May coming in for Dominic Waldouck.
The match is being keenly anticipated in both camps and there is bound to be a rarified atmosphere at a sold-out Franklin's Gardens as both sides set about strengthening their play-off semi-final claims.
