Bath's Boxing Day Prem clash with Leicester moved to 27 December

Bath's round eight Premiership Rugby match against Leicester Tigers has been rescheduled from Boxing Day to Sunday, December 27. The fixture at the Recreation Ground was initially set for 15:05 GMT, but will now kick off at 17:30 GMT the following day.

The schedule change was prompted by city-wide travel restrictions in Bath, where no rail or Park and Ride services operate on Boxing Day. Two other Premiership matches will still proceed on Saturday, December 26, featuring Bristol hosting Newcastle Red Bulls and Gloucester visiting Sale.
