Stade Mayol is whistling and jeering, it's become a really different atmosphere in the space of 60 seconds.

A real cauldron now.

Glasgow almost go coast-to-coast! Jamie Dobie is released on the right, freed by a catflap pass from Sione Tuipulotu.

Dobie chips over then tackles Baptiste Serin, winning the penalty as the scrum-half can't release.

Serin then stops Stafford McDowall taking the penalty quickly and gets sent to the bin.

Toulon are really starting to click but Facundo Isa is held up in Glasgow's 22m by a combination of Stafford McDowall, Jack Mann and Rory Darge.

It's brilliant defence from the visitors and Matthew Carley awards the penalty.

Glasgow's scrum has just disintegrated under pressure from Toulon.

A worrying sign for the visitors.

Toulon are coming forward again, with Dany Priso charging down the wing - prop on the loose!

But he's caught round the ankles by opposite number Jamie Bhatti, with Jamie Dobie stealing at the breakdown.

And another penalty goes against Glasgow now, Teddy Baubigny winning it for the hosts.

The Warriors' discipline is really letting them down in the opening exchanges.

Toulon turn it over on their own five-metre line before Baptiste Serin hoofs it clear.

Just a bit sloppy from Glasgow. The ball was ripped free by Facundo Isa, the Toulon number eight.

That's a bit better from Glasgow. Kyle Rowe pokes a kick through and puts the pressure on with his chase, winning the Warriors a penalty deep in Toulon's half.

It's kicked to touch, and the visitors have their first dart.

Another penalty goes against Glasgow, after the first scrum of the day. Jamie Bhatti appears to be the guilty party.

Toulon's first set piece ended in a try, but Glasgow appeared to have stolen the ball and won a penalty of their own.

An edgy start for both sides, as they both cough up possession.

The first penalty goes to Toulon though, with Lewis Ludlam winning it at the breakdown. He could be vital for the hosts today.

'C'est Mayol' reads the sign above the tunnel, as the players emerge into the winter sun of France.

The announcer, with head painted red and black, screams into the microphone. You don't get this down at Scotstoun.

Matthew Carley is the referee, and we are off.

Franco Smith makes seven changes to the starting XV that claimed a bonus-point victory over Sale Sharks last weekend.

Sam Talakai is the sole change to the front-row, while Alex Samuel is into the second-row and Jack Mann starts at number eight.

Ben Afshar makes a first-ever European start at scrum-half, partnering Duncan Weir who starts at 10.

Stafford McDowall is in at inside centre, while Jamie Dobie starts on the wing.

Attention now turns to the south of France as URC champions Glasgow Warriors visit three-time Champions Cup winners Toulon.

The sides have played each other on four occasions, with three of those meetings in the last 19 months.

Toulon have won two, but the Warriors won the most recent game and go into this one in good form after a comprehensive 38-19 win over Sale Sharks last week.

Meanwhile, Toulon beat the Stormers in South Africa. Not bad going. Let's have a look at the teams...

Stade end the game with nothing. Saracens are two wins from two in this season's Champions Cup.

The clock is in the red but there is still time for a bit of pushing and shoving. Maro Itjoe standing his ground in the face of some Stade aggression late on.

Surely there is no way back now for Stade, who will end the game with 13 players.

Saracens will want another try for the bonus point but the ball is currently at the wrong end of the field.
