Connacht ready for Glasgow backlash
In the first of two successive home games against Scottish opposition, Connacht would have traditionally viewed the Warriors as the fixture more likely to achieve a victory. The home side has a strong record against Glasgow — they have won every Celtic League clash in Galway since 2007 and they have not been beaten by the Warriors since 2009. However, this year the Warriors, who have traditionally taken a back seat to Edinburgh, are in flying form, perched in third place, some four points adrift of the Ospreys, and enjoying one of their best league seasons.
As a result Connacht coach Eric Elwood knows they travel to Galway in confident mood, determined to reverse their poor record against his side.
