Champions Wasps have lost their first three games and are under massive pressure to put that right as they visit old rivals Leicester. The good news for the Londoners is that England’s star stand-off Danny Cipriani could take his place on the bench after recovering quicker than expected from his serious ankle injury at the end of last season. Cipriani’s international rival Jonny Wilkinson is back in top form for Newcastle, who entertain struggling Bristol, while there is another huge match as Sale play host to pre-season favourites Gloucester.
