Leicester Mercury reports that former Leicester Tigers flanker Neil Back, who is now head coach of Leeds Carnegie, believes his old club are "under a lot of pressure".
"Leicester are finding themselves with only one win and in unfamiliar territory and under a lot of pressure," Back said. "Having been in that [Leicester] environment for a few years and looking at where they are now, the heat will be on. They lost a number of key players last year, a lot of experience and a lot of leadership. That has been compounded by a few injuries in key positions.
"They are under a lot of pressure from themselves which will be the most important thing, but the quality is there, the belief will be there.”
