Gloucester coach Bryan Redpath knows his side's 13-6 win over La Rochelle in France will count for little if they lose the return leg.
The Cherry and Whites need a win to keep alive their hopes of progressing in the Amlin Challenge Cup - but Redpath is not getting carried away by the result at the Stade Marcel Deflandre.
"It is only a job half done and Sunday is huge for us," said Redpath.
"The big thing is the result over at La Rochelle means we have given ourselves a chance to be in the mix to win the group.
"After losing at home we know they will come out and throw everything at us on Sunday and, once again, we are expecting the unexpected.
"At La Rochelle their game plan was very expansive - and that is good to see - while they also have plenty of big men so potentially they have the chance of being very direct and physical and we will expect more of the same on Sunday," Redpath added.
"Those are two huge incentives for Gloucester."
Gloucester: 15 Freddie Burns, 14 Charlie Sharples, 13 Mike Tindall, 12 Eliota Fuimaono-Sapolu, 11 Lesley Vainikolo, 10 Nicky Robinson, 9 Rory Lawson, 8 Luke Narraway, 7 Akapusi Qera, 6 Brett Deacon, 5 Alex Brown, 4 David Attwood, 3 Paul Doran-Jones, 2 Scott Lawson, 1 Nick Wood.
Replacements: 16 Olivier Azam, 17 Yann Thomas, 18 Pierre Capdevielle, 19 Will James, 20 Peter Buxton, 21 Dave Lewis, 22 Jonny May, 23 Tom Voyce.
