Gregor Townsend has named his Glasgow team for tomorrow's opening European Rugby Champions Cup tie with Bath at Scotstoun.

Gregor said: "There has been a heightened level of excitement and anticipation around the club this week, as we get closer to the start of our new European Rugby Champions Cup campaign.

"It's great that we're able to start this season's European campaign with a home game and we're expecting a bumper crowd at Scotstoun.

"Bath are one of the form teams in England and seem to be full of confidence.

"We are in a quality group with three of the leading sides in Europe. I imagine that every team in our group has the aim of progressing to the knockout stages and it should make for some fascinating contests. We can't wait for it to all get going on Saturday."
