Connacht up for another tough Glasgow test

Connacht’s incredible season records another first this evening when Pat Lam’s men contest the Guinness PRO12 semi-final against champions Glasgow.

This is virgin territory for the hosts while their Scottish opponents are chasing history of their own - bidding to be the first away semi-finalists to advance to the final and win back-to-back titles.

Connacht secured a 14-7 win when the sides met in the final round two weeks ago but Lam is expecting a more serious test from Gregor Townsend’s outfit this evening.
