    Dobie's struggling. It's been one of the worst halves I've seen Jamie Dobie play.

    He's a little bit off the pace. His box kicking has been poor.

    Matt Currie stabs a kick through and Tom Jordan has to dot down behind his own line.

    Edinburgh attack again, Wes Goosen is half-through, but Glasgow strip the ball and win the turnover.

    Edinburgh 3-0 Glasgow Warriors

    Edinburgh win another penalty, this time it's just beyond the half way line and creeping into Glasgow's half.

    Thompson points to the sticks again. This has to be massive...

    And it's not accurate. He totally slices it. Looked like one of my golf shots.

    Edinburgh 3-0 Glasgow Warriors

    Edinburgh are able to get down the other end of the field and Duhan van der Merwe finds Darcy Graham with a one-handed pass over the top of the defender.

    Graham is held up though, and he spills the ball when the maul goes down.

    Glasgow look to hit straight back, winning a penalty and kicking for the corner.

    It's shifted quickly from the line-out to Sione Tuipulotu but it didn't click and Duhan van der Merwe strips the ball back for Edinburgh.

    Glasgow's conversion rate in the red-zone is 41% - the best in the URC - but that's two chances they've missed now.

    Edinburgh have to keep the scoreboard ticking over when they get the chance. Their confidence is lower so they need to edge in front.

    Those three points could make all the difference.

    Ross Thompson

    And in the 57th match between Edinburgh and Glasgow here in the capital, it's the hosts who have the lead.

    Thompson, the former Warriors fly-half, slots the kick with his left-foot.

    Edinburgh 0-0 Glasgow Warriors

    Ross Thompson spots an opportunity for a 50-22 and absolutely nails the kick.

    That's within an inch or two of the white line. Perfectly judged and Edinburgh have a chance now.

    After the throw, they win a penalty. It looks like they're going for the posts.

    We know him for his try-scoring exploits, but Duhan van der Merwe has just flattened Kyle Rowe and squashed Sebastian Cancelliere.

    He's up for this!

    Glasgow have a throw five metres out. We know what they can do from here...

    But this time, the maul goes down quickly and it's good Edinburgh defence. Zander Fagerson then tries to pick from the back of the ruck, but leaves the ball behind.

    Edinburgh survive, and Glasgow show some rare profligacy.

    D'Arcy Rae continues to drive after the scrum has collapsed and Jamie Bhatti reacts angrily. No wonder, it's dangerous play from the Edinburgh tighthead.

    Plenty of pushing and shoving, and Edinburgh are marched back.

    A big chance for Hamish Watson. He's become the forgotten man of Edinburgh and Scottish rugby.

    He's got so much quality but this might be his first good run to remind Sean Everitt, and everyone, what he's capable of.

    Jamie Ritchie is now down. He was clattered by three or four bodies while trying to make a tackle.

    He'll come off for an HIA check, with Hamish Watson coming on. I'm unsure we'll see Ritchie again, that looked a nasty one.

    The good thing is Edinburgh have kept the ball for a huge amount of phases.

    Last week, they were kicking it away after three or four phases.

    Ross Thompson sits deep and the pass he gives is often too deep and you end up losing the gain line. You're playing into Glasgow's hands.

    Jamie Ritchie pierces a hole in the Glasgow defence. He looks left to Duhan van der Merwe but passes right to Ali Price, but Tom Jordan does enough to bring him down.

    Great scramble defence from the Warriors, but encouraging for Edinburgh.

    Edinburgh 0-0 Glasgow Warriors

    Edinburgh use a decent base from a throw to launch themselves into Glasgow's 22m for the first time, but it's a big hit from scrum-half Jamie Dobie that forces Edinburgh back.

    Glasgow's intensity in defence is frightening.

    A couple of wobbles from Edinburgh. Darcy Graham and Ben Muncaster are both slow to get up after heavy collisions.

    Grant Gilchrist and Gregor Brown are down, too. Bodies everywhere.

    Glasgow counter and there's room on the left. Kyle Steyn requires three men to bring him down and Jamie Dobie tries to slip Ally Miller through on the wing...

    But the back-rower loses his footing and Edinburgh win a penalty from the breakdown. Close call.

    It's Glasgow with the first attack of the match and unsurprisingly it's Huw Jones who carries the Warriors forward.

    He makes 25 metres or so but Edinburgh regather. This will be another physical encounter, that's for sure.
