But faced with more Irish opposition this weekend in the form of Munster, Taylor is challenging his side to use the disappointing memories of the reverse fixture, a 31-3 defeat at Thomond Park, to set the score straight on home soil.
"Any team which is on the edge of staying in a competition has got to give it everything and they [Munster] have a proud rugby history so I'm sure they'll be coming here throwing everything at us," Taylor told www.glasgowwarriors.org.
"We were very disappointed with the way we performed against them over in Ireland earlier in the season so we've probably got a score to settle in that sense as well. It's going to be an epic game and we're looking forward to it.
"We did a lot of good things against Leinster and defended well for long periods. We also scored two good tries to their one try and that's pretty good considering they're renowned for having one of the best attacks over the last couple of years in Europe.
"When we lost to Munster earlier in the season we had prepared well for the game but we had a few guys coming back from the Autumn Internationals and a few of them didn't fire on the night.
"Munster got the bounce of the ball and it was probably our worst performance of the season, so we want to make amends for it on Friday.
"There's been a resolve from the boys in training this week, it was a missed opportunity for us against Leinster and I believe we have the ability to beat any side in Europe, if we bring our A game."
