    It's still a massive weakness of Ross Thompson's game, his carrying of the ball. He doesn't look confident when he's got ball in hands, when he's attacking the defence. He's good going through the hands, kicking from hand, he manages the game well. He just looks nervous when he carries, he looks like a young laddie.

    Glasgow have the feed for the game's first scrum, and they earn a penalty off the back of it, which Ross Thompson boots downfield.

    I'm so impressed by how La Rochelle are playing. This is after... it must be 20 phases. Each one is quick. Glasgow's defence is fierce, but they don't know where the next attack is coming from.

    Try - Raymond Rhulepublished at 21 mins

    Glasgow 3-10 La Rochelle

    It's been coming.

    Pierre Popelin's chip over the top is expertly gathered by Pierre Boudehent, who then offloads to Tawera Kerr-Barlow.

    Josh McKay hauls the scrum-half down just short, but La Rochelle recycle and Raymond Rhule stretches out to score.

    Conversion successful.

    It's anther massive defensive effort from Glasgow. They need to get their hands on possession. That is physically draining. There's almost not an opportunity for Glasgow to get their defensive line set.

    Glasgow are camped on their own line at the moment, but they just about survive and Josh McKay slices a clearance into touch.

    Pierre Popelin kicks a penalty of his own, and La Rochelle hit back immediately.

    La Rochelle pinged for offside - Ross Thompson calls for his kicking tee and makes no mistake.

    Down to 14 men, but the hosts are ahead on the scoreboard.

    It's a penalty try. It has to be a penalty try. The fact that he's yellow carded him means it has to be a penalty try.

    Glasgow 0-0 La Rochelle

    Glasgow cynically drag down a La Rochelle maul as it moved menacingly towards the Warriors' try-line.

    It results in a yellow card for Fraser Brown. The hosts were perhaps lucky to escape without further punishment there...

    La Rochelle win a penalty at the breakdown and kick deep into Glasgow territory.

    A big defensive effort needed here for Glasgow...

    Glasgow at their best are capable of going toe-to-toe with this team and winning. On their own patch, they have a good record here - and they have that kick up the backside last week to feed off. They'll come out of the traps like angry men tonight.

    We're under way at Scotstoun, and La Rochelle are straight on the front foot as they win possession from their own kick-off.

    It wasn't quite as bad as the score suggested against Exeter, but it was super-charged errors in a condensed point in the second half. Because of that, tonight is more important for putting last week right, than it is for facing La Rochelle.

    Glasgow Warriors v La Rochelle (20:00)

    In the reverse fixture between these two sides, Glasgow battled hard in France but ultimately came up short 20-13.

    They will hope that the return of fans to Scotstoun can spur them on to a victory that would see them qualify for the knockout stage.

    Any game featuring La Rochelle tends to bring high levels of both physicality and ability, and tonight should be no exception.

    The French side are led by Gregory Alldritt, and name a XV full of internationals.
