Leicester Tigers have moved Saturday’s home match against London Wasps from an evening kick-off to a 1515 GMT start because of the freezing weather.

The game was due to start at 1730 GMT but Premier Rugby has asked the Tigers to bring the kick-off forward.

Managing director David Clayton said: “Temperatures can drop so quickly in the evenings.

“Bringing the kick-off forward will allow the game to be played in the best possible conditions.”
