It’s second against fourth at the Liberty Stadium on Friday night when the Ospreys face Glasgow in a crucial RaboDirect PRO12 clash (KO 7.05pm).
Buoyed by their 30-20 win over Zebre on Saturday afternoon that cemented the region’s place in second spot, the Ospreys go into Friday’s big game targeting a sixth PRO12 win of the season that will keep their noses ahead of Glasgow – knowing that defeat will see the Scots leapfrog them at the top end of the table.
With Scotland having finished their autumn fixtures last weekend, the visitors will be strengthened by the return to club action of their international contingent and will be targeting the game as one they can win to keep their push for the play-offs on target.
Glasgow, who like the Ospreys have lost just twice in the PRO12 so far this season, come into the game unbeaten against the Ospreys in four games, having doubled the region in each of the last two seasons, with 28-10 and 26-20 wins on their previous two visits to the Liberty Stadium.
