Leicester Tigers vs Bristol   Saturday, March 25th 2023 12:30PM  

Bristol Rugby and Leicester Tigers have a long-standing rivalry in rugby union. The two clubs have faced each other numerous times over the years in various competitions, including the English Premiership, the Anglo-Welsh Cup, and the European Rugby Challenge Cup.

One of the most memorable encounters between the two sides came in the 2006-07 season, when Bristol beat Leicester 8-6 in a closely fought match at Ashton Gate. The result was particularly significant as it marked the first time that Bristol had beaten Leicester in 13 years.

Another memorable match was the 2002-03 Premiership semi-final, in which Bristol came close to causing an upset against the heavily-favored Leicester side. Despite leading for much of the match, Bristol were eventually overhauled by a late Leicester surge, which saw them win 37-31.

Overall, Leicester have the upper hand in the head-to-head record between the two sides, having won the majority of their encounters. However, Bristol have had their fair share of victories over the years, and the rivalry between the two clubs continues to be a fiercely contested one.
