5 minutes to go in the first half, and the frantic pace of the game has tailed off somewhat, although the Tigers have just gone over the line after Thompstone took a great line off Tait before releasing Smith, but the move was brought back for a forward pass.

25 minutes gone, and an incredible try has just been scored by Ben Youngs. The move begins with Bath on the attack, but Flood does great work at the breakdown deep in his own half to turn the ball over and force a penalty. Youngs takes it quickly to catch a napping Bath defence, and easily rounds the last man to score.

Good response by Leicester to the intercept try, as some good carries from the pack eventually leads to Mercer being pinged for not releasing the man. Flood steps up and puts the Tiger back in front, 20 minutes gone.

No let up to the action here. From a deep kick by Donald, Leicester attempt to run the ball back, but Tait throws a long pass out which is intercepted by Rokoduguni, giving him a clear run to the line. 18 minutes gone, Bath lead 12-10.

An electrfying start to the game continues. This time Croft picks a great line through the Bath defence on the Bath 22, before showing great pace to round the Devoto and score under the sticks. 15 minutes gone.

Try for Bath after 8 minutes. Off a solid scrum Donald atones for his earlier miss, making a rampaging run to get hi side deep into the Tigers 22. Eventually the ball reaches Taylor who barrels over from close range.

6 minutes gone, Leicester give Bath the chance to hit back straight away, penalised for offside straight from the restart. Donald steps up but shanks his effort badly wide.

Only five minutes gone, but Leicester already have all the possession, carrying and offloading well. A quick tap from Youngs gets Leicester into Bath territory, and after a number of phases Bath are pinged for offside. Flood slots it to open the scoring.

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of todays clash from the Aviva Premiership. The sun is shining here at the Rec which should give us a great game of rugby, where the Leicester Tigers know a win will secure their place in play offs for another year. Bath too have still something to play for, as they push to try and sneak into the top six, giving them Heineken cup rugby next year.

That's good news and bad news: The good news is that it is on ESPN so we will not have to listen to the inane drivel from Stuart Barnes. The bad news is that we won't be able to hear short fat pointless git crying!!
