The game is a 4pm kick-off at Warwick School, with the young Falcons setting out in search of their third successive victory.

Newcastle were 29-22 winners away to Leicester Tigers earlier this month before last weekend’s 17-10 home win over Sale Sharks.

Following Saturday’s game, the Under-18s’ next match is away to Yorkshire Academy on Saturday February 4 before hosting Northampton Saints on Saturday February 11.

That game is a 4.30pm kick-off and forms the second half of a double-header after the Falcons’ senior game against Southern Knights (1.30pm).
