Worcester coach Mike Ruddock has kept faith with the same starting line-up that stunned Leicester last weekend.

Erik Lund returns at second row for Leeds Carnegie while Kearnan Myall will start at blind-side flanker.

Prop Fosi Pala'amo is unavailable after picking up a calf injury so Adam Hopcroft is called onto the bench.

10-10 draw dont think it will help leeds they are destined for the drop. There was some pretty good rugby but then there was some pretty ordinary stuff.
