Leicester, the holders of the EDF Energy Cup, have drawn Heineken Cup holders London Wasps in a mouth-watering match that will kick off the double-header semi-final day on March 22nd, 2008 at the Millennium Stadium.
In last May’s Twickenham final the Tigers raised the trophy by winning a high octane affair 41-35 and Sunday’s draw, held live on BBC2, threw up the possibility of a chance of revenge for the Magners League champions.
Lyn Jones’s side are just 80 minutes away from a return trip along the M4 but first must get past Alan Gaffney’s rejuvenated Saracens side who qualified top of Pool 4 despite Saturday’s 36-34 defeat to Llanelli Scarlets.
