Leicester Tigers revived their hopes of a Premiership Rugby Cup semi-final with a 41-26 home win over London Irish at Welford Road.
The Tigers will qualify as Pool B winners if Newcastle fail to beat Northampton on Wednesday.
Irish had already secured their place in the last four, but six Tigers tries helped end their 100% record.
England U20s star Henry Arundell gave Irish an early lead in the cross-group game at Leicester, as they looked to make it four wins out of four, before Bryce Hegarty levelled the score for the hosts.
