Glasgow Form
Glasgow have made an excellent start to their season, winning their last five home matches across the United Rugby Championship and the Champions Cup. The Warriors come into this match off the back of a 24-13 win over Edinburgh.
Their previous home results include wins over the Sharks (35-19), Dragons (49-0), Bulls (21-12), and Toulouse (28-21) in a Champions Cup match that saw the Warriors mount an epic comeback from 21-0 down to beat the French giants on one of the club's greatest nights.
The Warriors are currently fourth in the United Rugby Championship with 29 points after eight matches.
Glasgow Injuries & Team News
Wing/full-back Josh McKay pulled his hamstring in the Toulouse match and is facing several weeks on the sideline, while winger Kyle Rowe is out with a knee injury he sustained against the Scarlets.
With a congested fixture list looming, coach Franco Smith will need Jamie Dobie and Ollie Smith to deputise on the wing in the coming weeks, although it is not their preferred position.
Zebre Form
Zebre are currently experiencing a poor run of form on the road, losing their last five matches. They come into this match off the back of a 21-15 defeat at Benetton.
Their previous away results include losses at Leinster (76-5), Ospreys (24-0), Leinster (50-26), and Montpellier (31-7) in the Challenge Cup.
Zebre are currently 15th in the United Rugby Championship with 11 points after eight matches.
Zebre Injuries & Team News
Zebre have shown improvement in certain areas, particularly in their recruitment and coaching staff, but it has not yet translated into consistent wins.
Verdict
Glasgow are backed to win comfortably at home, covering the -26.5 handicap.
