Farrell, Itoje and Vunipola start for Premiership championsTigers rest England players but Tonga wing Kata may feature
Saracens will welcome a host of England internationals back for Saturday’s meeting with Leicester Tigers, eight days after they defeated Argentina in Paris to claim third place at the Rugby World Cup.
Owen Farrell, Maro Itoje, Jamie George, Ben Earl, Billy Vunipola and Elliot Daly line up in Mark McCall’s starting XV at the StoneX Stadium with another member of Steve Borthwick’s England squad, the hooker Theo Dan, among the replacements. Saracens lost their first two Premiership games before kickstarting their title defence with a 24-3 victory at Gloucester in round three last Friday.
