Always the other side of Regent Road to the ground so shouldn’t be too many issues

To the world you may be just one person.

Its the right game for a few tweaks, without going mad.
Hope Whitcombe gets a start, as I think he's had to be very patient. Give Hendo and Hanro a rest, but other than that, I'd stick with last week's line-up. If Watson is available, then I'd consider throwing him in.
Happy to see Sara Cox rewarded for a good showing last week. Hopefully she gets more into the regular rotation.

Think someone said it was a Lutterworth gym though some of the players use Genge Syngym.

Leicester Tigers have named their side for Sunday’s double-header at Mattioli Woods Welford Road with Dan McKellar making four changes to his starting XV for the round eight clash against Newcastle.
Mike Brown starts at fullback which sees Freddie Steward shift to the wing in an otherwise unchanged Tigers backline.
Francois Van Wyk and Dan Cole form the front-row with Julián Montoya who was confirmed captain for the 2023/24 season on Thursday.
Harry Wells partnering Ollie Chessum in the second-row is the final change to Tigers’ starting selection, with tighthead prop Will Hurd being the only addition to Leicester’s matchday 23.
Leicester Tigers head coach, Dan McKellar said: “We’ve earned a few results of the back of our preparation and execution and Sunday’s no different against a good Newcastle side.
“We’re fortunate to have depth in key positions at the moment so it’s important to freshen guys up and provide opportunity where we can.
“The crowd against Saints was incredible and with the double-header on Sunday I’m sure it’ll be another brilliant atmosphere.”
