Leicester need to win this one to achieve the treble.
Leicester were completely dominant as the domolished Gloucester 44-16 in the Guinness Premiership Final at Twickenham last Saturday , after being total charge of the first half.
Leicester won EDF Cup 41-35 in April , where they completely dominated the first half and had to hold on against the exiting Ospreys in the second half.
In the semi-final of the Heniken cup I was expecting Llanelli win but Leicester produced a great performance and won easily 33-17 .
I have seen those three matches on t.v. and it was only the Ospreys in their second half that gave Leicester a fright. In that match it was the running backs of the Ospreys that discovered the gaps .
Leicester play the game in the forwards and occasionally release their two massive wingers Rabeni and Tuilagi. Hipkiss played well last week and they have Gibson back this week.

I have not seen much of Wasps recently , the won against lowly Northampton twice recently 35-29 in the premiership and 30-13 in the semi final of the Heineken , they had a great won in the previous round against Leinster 35-13.
In the semi final they were 13-0 down in the first quarter hour , but they came back well .A similar first half performance against Leicester will see them punished and they will struggle to get into the game .That day Wasp tried to play too adventurous early on and they made a lot of errors. I cannot see them playing that type of game tomorrow. Wasp do have speedy backs in Voyce and Sackey but they will need to avoid the Leicester massive wingers in attack and take them head on in defence. Very difficult tasks ,Tuilagi with ball in hand and 10m to the try line reminds me of Lomu in his prime.

I'm looking forward to watching this game and will be backing Leicester to beat the handicap both h.t. and f.t. my bets are:

Leicester -3 h.t@2 with bluesq
Leicester -7 f.t @2 with bet365

Anyone else with an opinion on this match ?
