Captain Al Kellock returns to the Glasgow Warriors side to face Bath Rugby in the European Rugby Champions Cup at the Recreation Ground on Sunday (kick-off 1pm) – live on BT Sport 2.Al Kellock

The Warriors travel south looking to qualify for the quarter-finals of the tournament for the first time.

At full-back Sean Maitland replaces Peter Murchie, while Tommy Seymour and DTH van der Merwe continue on either wing, with the latter having scored a hat-trick against Montpellier last weekend.

Mark Bennett comes in at outside centre, having returned last weekend from a nine-week injury lay-off, with Alex Dunbar moving to inside centre.

Finn Russell continues at stand-off, while Henry Pyrgos replaces Niko Matawalu at scrum-half.

In the pack Gordon Reid and Mike Cusack come in for Ryan Grant and Jon Welsh at loose-head and tight-head respectively, with Pat MacArthur continuing at hooker.

Kellock comes into the second-row in place of the injured Tim Swinson and he'll partner Jonny Gray in the engine room.

Leone Nakarawa continues on the blind-side, while Fraser Brown comes in for Ryan Wilson at openside and Richie Vernon replaces the injured Josh Strauss at Number 8.

Glasgow Warriors head coach Gregor Townsend said: "This is a massive game for the club and we're really looking forward to the challenge of playing one of the form teams in Europe this weekend.

"The qualification picture will be a lot clearer come Sunday lunchtime, but we know that a win could be enough for us to qualify for the quarter-finals of the tournament for the first time and that is something which really excites everyone at the club.

"It's great to still be in contention to qualify going into the final round of games and we'll probably have to produce our best performance of the season to win on Sunday.”
