Glasgow have been in brilliant form this year and currently sit top of the URC and also won their Champions Cup group with four bonus point wins. Their only loss since November came away to Connacht when they were missing huge amounts of their squad for the Six Nations. In the last round of the URC, they defeated Benetton 31-10, a comfortable victory despite having been 10-7 behind at halftime. Glasgow scored four tries without conceding in the second half.

Bulls (Away team): W-W-L-W-W

The Bulls have been in fantastic form, winning six of their last seven games. Their only loss in this run came against the Stormers. They have been in South Africa for five games in a row, and their last game in Europe saw them win away to Edinburgh.
