Big crowd expected to watch Saracens at Wembley

More than 40,000 fans are expected at Wembley tomorrow afternoon when Saracens take on Worcester Warriors.

The Men in Black can return to the top of the Guinness Premiership with a win and they are boosted by the return of their England Saxons players.

Alex Goode starts at full-back with Brad Barritt and Kameli Ratuvou reunited in the centre. Andy Saull comes back in to the pack and scrum half Neil de Kock, who has recently returned from injury, is given his first start since the win over South Africa at the national football stadium back in November.

Saracens have attracted an impressive crowd, during the Six Nations, by getting chart toppers Chipmunk and The Saturdays to perform and charging £10 for some adult tickets.

Sarries' director of rugby Brendan Venter said: "Worcester are another good rugby side we're playing against. They have some good players and they're well organised. The margins are small but that's what we’ve come to expect because everybody has good money to spend. You don’t have Chris Latham, Rico Gear, Sam Tuitupou and Willie Walker if you're a poor rugby side."
