NEWPORT Mike Manning Audio Wasps are at their Queensway Meadows Stadium home busily preparing for tonight's first leg of the British Premier League Knockout Cup final against Glasgow Tigers.
The visitors stand on the verge of being crowned BPL champions for 2011 and their presence in the final offers a massive challenge to the Wasps, who are seeking their first piece of silverware since their 1999 British Premier Trophy success.
However skipper Leigh Lanham's men have won 10 successive league fixtures at their base and tonight's clash, which starts at 7.00pm, is expected to be one of the best on the venue's 15-season history.
The second leg is scheduled to take place in Glasgow tomorrow afternoon at 4.00pm.
Full scoring details will appear here at around 10.15pm tonight.
