Tigers knock on inside the Irish half. The Irish front row are penalised at the scrum and Tigers get the penalty. They opt for the posts and Freddie Burns steps up.

Good line speed in defence form the visitors. They turn over and charge down field. A nicely weighted kick from Burns finds touch inside the Irish 22.

Geraghty gets us underway! The Exiles reclaim from the kick off and look to punch an early hole in this Tigers defence.

Jordan Crane leads the Tigers out onto the field on his 200th cap. Conditions are wet at Madejski as Irish take the field.

Good afternoon and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of today's Premiership action as London Irish host Leicester Tigers at Madejski Stadium. A win today is essential for the Tigers if they are to maintain their hopes of a top 6 finish. London Irish however will be looking to do the double over Leicester after their victory at Welford Road in September. Safe from relegation, the Exiles will have nothing to lose so we can expect to see some expansive rugby from them this afternoon. Kick off is 10 minutes away so stay with us for updates throughout.

Come on Exiles!
