Bath Rugby face an away match at Leicester
Tigers in the Guinness Premiership semi-finals after ending the regular season with victory over Saracens at The Rec. Tries from Andrew Higgins, Peter Short and Matt Banahan – plus 18 points from the boot of Ryan Davis – set up the victory over Saracens. Bath were made to fight for their win by a determined Saracens side, who tested Steve Meehan’s men throughout a frantic clash which lasted 104 minutes in total. And Bath’s reward for finishing fourth in the Premiership after the 22-game regular season is a repeat of this season’s Heineken Cup quarter-final away at the Walkers Stadium.With Joe Maddock, Alex Crockett and Butch James all ruled out through injury, Bath head coach Steve Meehan put his faith in Higgins, Tom Cheeseman and Davis with his side needing two match points to guarantee a place in the semi-finals.
