The stage is set for the 2025 Gallagher Premiership Rugby final as regular season table toppers Bath take on Leicester Tigers.

Having finished the season 11 points clear at the top, Bath were huge favourites to reach a second successive Premiership final.

But they trailed local rivals Bristol Bears 13-6 at half time in Friday night’s semi.

However, four tries after the break saw the hosts pull away from their Westcountry neighbours.

Johann van Graan’s side eventually ran out 34-20 winners to book their ticket to Twickenham.

They will face historic rivals and familiar foes Leicester Tigers.

Tigers finished second in the table, and hosted Sale Sharks in a nail-biting contest at Welford Road on Saturday.

A cagey first half was lit up by two outstanding scores from Leicester winger Adam Radwan.

The former Newcastle speedster’s acrobatic diving catch to score from Handre Pollard’s cross-field kick will feature on highlight reels for years to come.

While Sale came back into the match, Leicester hung on for a 21-16 victory to set up a final against Bath.

Ahead of Premiership Rugby’s big finale, we’re providing all the details to make sure you don’t miss a minute of the action.

Bath Rugby Chasing The Treble 4q4c

It’s already been a season to for Bath.

Having not won a trophy of any kind since 2008 ahead of this campaign, they now have the chance to win a treble this weekend.

They have already won the Premiership Cup, a competition they have now won 11 times in all its formats.

And last month, they defeated French side Lyon in Cardiff to lift the European Challenge Cup.

But the Premiership title has eluded Bath for almost three decades.

Despite being historically one of the most successful sides in English rugby, Bath have not won the domestic title since 1996.

They will be hoping to change that, and complete a memorable treble.

Standing in their way are a Leicester outfit with no shortage of pedigree.

No team has won more English league titles than the Tigers, with 11 to their name already.

They were crowned champions no fewer than eight times in 14 years from 1999-2013, including a record four in a row in the early 2000s.

After a barren spell of nine years, they won the Premiership again in 2022 to extend their record tally.
