Warriors pair set to face Tigers

Worcester duo Chris Horsman and James Collins both look set to be fit for Saturday's home date with Leicester.

Collins (stinger injury) and Horsman (ankle problem) both limped off in Sunday's dramatic 11-10 win at Wasps.

Director of rugby Mike Ruddock is keen to use Sunday's win as a springboard to an acceptable level of consistency.

"Wasps, Leicester, Gloucester have done it over the years," he said. "But we can we do it and maintain a standard that is right up there."

But, after starting the season with two away games, Ruddock will go into Saturday's first home game reminding his team that it still early days.

"Time will tell, and the strength of our squad," he told BBC Hereford and Worcester. "And already one or two injuries could affect us."

There will be full commentary on Saturday's Guinness Premiership game against Leicester Tigers at Sixways on BBC Hereford and Worcester on air and on line.
