Glasgow Warriors v Connacht (19:45)
Scotland second row Scott Cummings returns from injury to make his first Glasgow Warriors appearance for four months.
Cummings, who last played for Franco Smith’s side in January, has been out since suffering a calf injury in Scotland’s Six Nations win over France in March.
The British and Irish Lions international replaces the injured Gregor Brown while Patrick Schickerling starts at loosehead having been rested for last weekend’s away win at Ulster.
Matt Fagerson and Rory Darge both return in the back-row having also missed the trip to Ulster, but Jamie Dobie remains out.
Connacht are boosted by the return of forwards Dylan Tierney-Martin and Darragh Murray in two of five changes made by coach Stuart Lancaster.
Tierney-Martin replaces Eoin de Buitléar at hooker, while Sam Illo starts place of Finlay Bealham at tight-head prop.
In the second row, Joe Joyce drops out to accommodate Murray’s return, while Paul Boyle comes in for the injured Sean Jansen at number eight in a back row that also contains team captain Cian Prendergast and Shamus Hurley-Langton.
The sole change in the backs sees John Devine in for the injured Harry West at outside centre and will play alongside Bundee Aki.
