Nick Evans returns from injury

Harlequins go into their final regular season home game looking to secure a top two finish in the Aviva Premiership when they face Leicester Tigers, on Saturday (KO: 15:15) in front of a sell out crowd at the Stoop.

Joe Marler, Rob Buchanan and James Johnston provide the front row.  Olly Kohn and George Robson remain in the second row. Maurie Fa’asavalu continues at blindside alongside captain Chris Robshaw and Nick Easter at number 8.

The replacements see Aston Croall, Mark Lambert, Will Collier covering in the front row. Tomas Vallejos and Tom Guest will looking to impact in the second and back row respectively. Karl Dickson and Rory Clegg cover at half back, while Ross Chisholm covers the remainder of the backline.
