With just over five weeks to go until "The Big Game" between Harlequins and Leicester Tigers, which takes place at Twickenham Stadium on Saturday 27th December (kick off 4pm), records are already being broken.

Ticket sales for the game are currently standing at over 25,000, thus breaking the previous attendance record for a single Guinness Premiership match of 23,709, set by London Irish at their St Patricks Day game in March 2008.

"This game is really capturing the imagination of the London sporting public" said Dean Richards, the Harlequins Director of Rugby "with over 70% of the seats at £10 or less, it is very attractive to all the families in the area who are looking for a day out together at a top quality, sporting event this Christmas. Both sides are near the top of the table and this will be an absolutely crucial game with a host of international players on view."
