Declan Kidney has confirmed the squad that will welcome Leicester Tigers to the Brentford Community Stadium tomorrow night for the semi-final of the Premiership Rugby Cup (7:45pm kick-off).

Marcel van der Merwe, Mike Willemse and Ciaran Parker are in the front row, with Chunya Munga and George Nott in the second row.

Jack Cooke captains the team from the six jersey and is joined in the back row by Ben Donnell and Albert Tuisue.

Ben White and Noel Reid are the halfback duo, with Curtis Rona and Will Joseph in the centres.

Lucio Cinti, James Stokes and Henry Arundell form the back three combination.

“Tomorrow night is an exciting prospect for everyone involved,” said Declan Kidney, Director of Rugby.
