    Glasgow v Exeter (15:15)

    Exeter have lost both of their previous European visits to Scotstoun but the visitors are much improved these days.

    Glasgow gave them a fright at Sandy Park in November and were leading at half-time before the Chiefs powered their way to a 34-18 victory.

    Can the Warriors make it a home hat-trick today? The action will be under way in just a tick...

    Jack Nowell is a potent attacking threat for the visitors

    While all eyes will be on Stuart Hogg, the rest of the Exeter line-up is one that can cause danger from all parts of the field.

    In the backs England winger Jack Nowell is arguably Exeter's most potent weapon from deep while Ollie Devoto has been putting his hand up for a recall from Eddie Jones after impressive displays in midfield and Australia scrum-half Nic White is seen as one of the best nines in the Premiership.

    Up front, Exeter's pack are renowned for forcing their side over with multiple phases of play when they get within touching distance of their opponent's line

    And while Glasgow loosehead Oli Kebble will not have to deal with Harry Williams - who terrorised Mako Vunipola before going off against Saracens and then subsequently getting a two-week ban for his part in an on-pitch fracas, his replacement Alec Hepburn has been on England's fringes.

    Hookers Fraser Brown and Luke Cowan-Dickie may see each other again in the Calcutta Cup next month while youngster Sean Lonsdale comes in for former Australia second-row Dave Dennis having been a semi-regular last season.

  4. Big day for Graypublished at 15:09 Greenwich Mean Time 11 January 2020

    Glasgow v Exeter (15:15)

    There is another interesting sub-plot here, with Glasgow lock Jonny Gray committed to joining Stuart Hogg at Sandy Park next season.

    How will the big man get on today? Surely he'll be keen to make his mark against his future team-mates.

  5. 'A wee bit strange' for Hogg to returnpublished at 15:07 Greenwich Mean Time 11 January 2020

    You cannot mention this fixture without mentioning a certain Stuart Hogg.

    The Scotland and Lions full-back moved from Glasgow to Exeter in the summer after nine years with the Warriors.

    Today marks his first time back at Scotstoun since the Warriors beat Ulster in the Pro14 semi-final back in May.

    "It'll be a wee bit strange being in the away changing room, but I'm excited to get back," Hogg told BBC Sport this week.

    "[Glasgow back-rower] Ryan Wilson gave me a little bit of stick the last time about he was going to come and get me and all that kind of palaver.

    "But I'm old enough and ugly enough now to realise what's going to happen and I've just got to get a smile on my face and enjoy myself being back at Scotstoun.

    "I've got to make sure I can do my job for the team and hopefully give ourselves every opportunity to qualify."

  6. Who needs what?published at 15:04 Greenwich Mean Time 11 January 2020

    Glasgow v Exeter (15:15)

    After winning four in a row, pool leaders Exeter need just one point from the remaining two games to reach the Champions Cup quarter-finals for just the second time.

    Glasgow are a long way back after a very damaging home loss to La Rochelle. Dave Rennie's side really need a bonus-point win today and another one away to Sale next weekend. A big ask, as they say.

  7. 'I'd love the crowd to make life difficult for Hogg'published at 15:00 Greenwich Mean Time 11 January 2020

    Glasgow v Exeter (15:15)

    Glasgow Warriors head coach Dave Rennie, speaking to BBC Sport Scotland: "The weather's a shocker, isn't it? Obviously there'll be a bit of kicking in these conditions, but hopefully the wind dies down a bit and you can play both ways.

    "We're talking about the quality of our performance and getting our set-piece right. We'll have to defend really well and if we do those parts hopefully the scoreboard and the try tally looks after itself."

    Rennie says Stuart Hogg will get a good reception from the Scotstoun crowd as he returns: "By his own admission he's not the best tackling 15 in the world, so hopefully we can force some one-on-ones on him. I've seen him kick a lot of balls dead here in this ground so I'm looking forward to seeing that as well.

    "I'd love the crowd to give him a tough time and make life difficult, but they love him. They'll be sporting and clap him, but if he drops the odd high ball he might get a reaction."

    Well, Edinburgh lost out to the French league leaders. How will Glasgow fare against the English league leaders?

    We switch our attention to a soggy Scotstoun now.

    How good are Bordeaux? Edinburgh barely touched the ball in the second half, even after scoring their try. But as crazy as it sounds, Edinburgh defended well with a massive defensive effort from some younger players. But they'll regroup and be ready against Agen in the last game.

    I don't think you can question the physicality and the mental effort of the Edinburgh players. Once they lost the ball like they did, they had no platform to get forward. If you don't have those fundamentals it's almost impossible to compete at this level. It was like they were playing with one arm. It's so difficult to play when you've got a line-out functioning at 10 or 15% success rate.

    Bordeaux were just too strong and they go into the last eight as pool winners.

    Edinburgh, who had a day to forget with the line-out, will join them in the knockout phase if they beat Agen at home next weekend.

    It's all about the pressure Bordeaux put on the Edinburgh line-out. It's another line-out turnover, this time five metres from their own line. It's bread and butter stuff, if you don't make your line-outs you're going to get punished. Simple.

    The try is good. Peni Ravai delivers the bonus point for the hosts. And that's the group wrapped up with a game to spare for Bordeaux.

    That came from another line-out error by the way... It's been a shocking day for Edinburgh in that department.

    The conversion goes awry.

    The Edinburgh scrum is found wanting and Bordeaux kick to the corner in search of a bonus-point try.

    A silly skirmish as Darcy Graham is rag-dolled to the ground. Magnus Bradbury doesn't like it and then it all kicks off, with lots of pushing and shoving.

    The tiny ref gets right in amongst it and order is quickly restored.
