"We are now in our own backyard and we want to show our fans what we can do. Glasgow are a very good side, they have 15 or 16 internationals in their squad, but this is one we need to win and with the crowd behind us we can do that," said Muldoon.

Connacht's next home match after Friday will be against Leinster on Sunday, October 5 (kick off: 6pm) and tickets for this game are on sale.

Connacht squad: Liam Bibo, Andrew Browne, Kieran Campbell, Fionn Carr, Sean Cronin, Mel Deane, Gavin Duffy, Andy Dunne, Adrian Flavin, Andrew Farley, John Hearty, Ian Keatley, Ronan Loughney, Keith Matthews, Michael McCarthy, Brian McGovern, Robbie Morris, John Muldoon, Frank Murphy, John O'Connor, Ray Ofisa, Colm Rigney, Brett Wilkinson, Aidan Wynne.

Not considered due to injury: Tim Donnelly (shoulder), David Gannon (foot), Conor O'Loughlin (hip), Daniel Riordan (hamstring), Michael Roberts (calf), Michael Swift (leg).
