Sean Lineen has made only one change to the Glasgow Warriors side that defeated Edinburgh at Firhill last Friday.
The change is brought about due to the injury of Tim Barker. The lock was stretchered off after damaging his knee in the Warriors' 25-20 win. He is replaced in the pack by Opeta Palepoi.
"The players have a chance to prove that last week's result wasn't a one-off. They deserve another chance," Lineen said of his selection.
"Once again, our last result will mean nothing if we don't win tomorrow night."
Landmark
Dan Turner remains on the substitutes' bench, and so will have to wait and see if he will be able to make his 100th appearance for the Warrioirs.
The 28-year-old forward is eagerly anticipating his landmark game.
"I've never played this many games for a team before so I'd like to think it shows how much Glasgow means to me," he said.
"I also think it's a reflection on the team spirit here. I really enjoy playing, training and generally hanging out with all the guys here because of the camaraderie in the squad."
