Zebre have won just one of their last seven fixtures against Scottish opponents: 19-11 over Edinburgh in Parma 12 months ago and have never previously won in Scotland.
Glasgow Warriors returned to winning ways at Dragons on Friday following a pair of reversals, to Cardiff Blues and Ulster.
The Scotsmen have won their last 19 encounters with Italian opponents since tripping up at home to Treviso (at Firhill) in September 2011.
Zebre have yet to beat Glasgow in eight previous meetings and have not tallied a losing bonus point against them for over three years.
Overall Guinness PRO12 head to head record:
Played 8, Zebre won 0, Warriors won 8.
