Glasgow Warriors head coach Gregor Townsend said: "We have to put the disappointment of Europe behind us and now concentrate on the league.
"There is plenty we can learn from our last two performances in the Heineken Cup and that is what we've been working on this week.
"We're sitting third in the RaboDirect PRO12 so we've put ourselves in a good position with our early season form.
"Treviso are a tough side to play against and will provide us with a very physical contest. I expect our players to meet this challenge head on and take the game to our opponents."
