In the pack, Nick Williams returns to wear the no. 8 jersey, with Simone Favaro and Nicola Cattina starting at flanker. The last change is in the second row, where Quintin Geldenhuys pairs up with captain Marco Bortolami. The front row is unchanged from the Munster clash, with Fabio Staibano and Matias Aguero as props and Fabio Ongaro hooking.
"Glasgow come to us off the back of a great win against the Ospreys, while we played a very good game in Cork against Munster", says Ongaro.
"That means both teams are ready to play tomorrow's (Saturday's) game in the best way. For the internationals it will be the first game back in Viadana, and this is an added stimulus for us. We must approach the game as we did in Cork, with the right attitude to play mindful defense and a more concrete offence. As always, set pieces will be fundamental"
