Stafford McDowall looked as if he was away there, unfortunately for the Glasgow centre, he left the ball behind him.

But the advantage means there is a Glasgow line-out deep in the Dragons half.

Play is stopped after a Dragons injury and nothing comes of the Glasgow attack this time. That's injured player number 16 for Dai Flanagan...

Glasgow are on the charge again! This Dragon defence are really being tested this evening as Tom Jordan bursts through.

Dragons get over the line but the ball is held up by Stafford McDowall. Breathless stuff so far.

Dragons are looking dangerous with a scrum inside the Glasgow 22, looking to test this Glasgow defence.

Ross Thompson gets the game under way at Scotstoun

The last time these sides faced each other at Scotstoun, Glasgow won 73-33 in Europe last April. Will Glasgow repeat this dominant performance, or can Dragons redeem themselves?

The teams are out, let's find out!

Speaking earlier in the week Dragons head coach Dai Flanagan said: "Any trip to Scotstoun is tough. Glasgow are a well-coached team and when they lose an international team, they bring another one in to replace them.

"They have a lot of experienced players they can bring in for this period and that means they will be a real test.

"We have a lengthy injury list, without making excuses, but that brings opportunity and exposure to players who can go and grab the chance."

Head coach Franco Smith says Jamie Dobie will start on the wing instead of his usual scrum-half role as a way of ensuring Glasgow Warriors have "the best rugby players on the pitch" against Dragons on Saturday evening.

"Through injury concerns from other players and national duty, obviously it was fantastic to be able to say to Jamie ‘listen, step up in that role’ and he is the type of person who embraces the challenge," he said.

"It’s going to be his first game back after a long injury lay off. He’s excited to just get going and I’m glad that it’s on the wing where he can also add a lot of value because I like the fact that there’s two scrum-halves on the field.

"That will help us with the way we play."
