Border Reivers keep clear of the Hogmanay celebrations in Scotland when they kick off the weekend’s fixtures, hosting Glasgow Warriors at Netherdale on Friday night. The Reivers will be looking to maintain their home record against the Scottish side.
Elsewhere on Sunday, the Ospreys will again be hoping for a packed house at the Liberty Stadium and another hatful of points when they host Newport Gwent Dragons.
Connacht will be aiming to claw back points from Munster who have now leapfrogged above them in the table, although they have not beaten their visitors since 1986.
