Glasgow Warriors (Home team): W-W-W-L-W

Glasgow are undefeated at home all season, winning 12 home games in a row. They have won 12 of their last 13 matches, only losing to Connacht in that time. In the last round, they beat the Bulls 25-21. They found themselves 14-12 behind at halftime as Handre Pollard had kicked three first-half penalties. Glasgow scored two tries in the second half and kicked a penalty to secure the win. 

Toulon (Away team): W-L-L-D-L

Toulon’s win in the last round brought an end to a long winless run. They hadn’t won in six games, only drawing once in that run. In the win over the Stormers, Toulon survived by the finest of margins. The Stormers crossed the line twice in the last ten minutes but were held up. In the final play, the South Africans decided not to go for the drop goal, and Charles Ollivon held up over the line to hear the blow of the whistle for full time.
