Warriors eye another French scalp

Jamie Bhattis says Racing 92 "have players that can just pull something out of nowhere"
Racing 92's visit to Scotstoun gives Glasgow an opportunity take another big French scalp and secure a Champions Cup last 16 spot.

Warriors are well-placed in Pool 4 and favourites to overcome a Racing side that has struggled to find form but Glasgow prop Jamie Bhatti is well aware of the challenge the French outfit will present.

"I'm looking forward to it," Bhatti told Scotland Rugby News. "I've never played against Racing before but I'm just gutted it's not at their really cool stadium with all the big screens.

"They've not even been playing there in their domestic games but we're all buzzing to play at Scotstoun, especially on a big European night.

"They've not been too consistent or doing that well but they have players that can just pull something out of nowhere. We are a humble outfit.

"We fell short to Toulon and you hear they have the biggest budget in France.

"We played Bayonne last year and it's always good to beat a French team because of the league they play in and the budgets they have. It would be a big scalp."
