Exeter Chiefs will not let up at Leicester - Rob Baxter

Baxter is refusing to rest players for the trip to Leicester

Exeter head coach Rob Baxter says he will select a full-strength side to face Leicester Tigers on Saturday.

The Chiefs beat Gloucester 22-10 last weekend in their Premiership debut but face a huge challenge against when they face the champions at Welford Road.

Baxter told BBC Radio Devon: "It's feet on the ground time now, and we've got to start hunting for some more Premiership points.

"We're not going to start worrying about targeting various games."

Following their trip to Leicester, Exeter's next opponents are Newcastle at Sandy Park on 18 September.

And although the Falcons are expected to be one of the team's battling Exeter against relegation, Baxter said there is no temptation to rest players against the Tigers this weekend.

He said: "The only selection issues we'd have would be over injuries, so if we haven't got injuries going into Leicester, then we'll select full on.

"That's what we have to do and that gives us the best basis to work from."

Exeter were promoted to the Premiership in May after beating Bristol over two-legs in the Championship play-offs.
