Glasgow v Scarlets
Venue: Firhill
Date: Friday, 26 September, Kick off - 19:30 </div>
Glasgow coach Sean Lineen has an injury doubt over Dan Parks for Friday's Magners League game against Scarlets.
The Scotland stand-off has a badly bruised leg, but should start if fit despite a dip in form.
Stephen Jones starts for Scarlets after the fly-half shook off a knee injury suffered in the defeat at Edinburgh.
Phil John plays tight-head as Kees Meeuws has a calf injury, and with Deacon Manu's cheekbone fracture Aled Hopkins is drafted in as bench cover.
Mahonri Schwalger, Dafydd James, Darren Daniel, Simon Maling and Simon Easterby will also miss the Glasgow trip through injury, while Josh Turnbull has an ankle problem.
Lineen is looking to get his team's league campaign back on track after successive defeats since their opening victory against Dragons.
"I'm frustrated, but we know where the problem lies," said Lineen.
"We're not converting pressure in to points, but once we get that sorted out we'll be fine.
"Scarlets will be hurting from last week and will want a Scottish notch on their belts.
"But the guys are determined to continue our good record against them."
Lineen has held off from naming his back line in order to give Parks every chance to prove his fitness.
"Dan's a class player. He was going through little dip but all players do that and he's responded well," said the Warriors coach.
"But we can't be a one man team and I'm expecting a big performance from the whole team this week."
Scarlets coach Nigel Davies has urged his side to improve their form in Scotland.
"Glasgow are always a difficult team to play against at home on a small and narrow pitch. You have to go up there and fight for everything," said Davies.
"And that's what I want to see - a lot more fight from my players.
"As well as that we need a lot more clarity and confidence and if we can do that we can be quite confident.
"But what we can't afford to be is as complacent and as poor as we were against Edinburgh."
The Scarlets' last victory in Scotland was against the now-defunct Border Reivers in 2006, and they have lost their last three games against Scottish sides.
The last six encounters between the two sides have been won by the home side, the Scarlets' only Magners League win in Glasgow coming at Hughenden in 2003.

Backs from: Max Evans, Thom Evans, Lome Fa'atau, Colin Gregor, Andrew Henderson, Ruaridh Jackson, Mark McMillan, Graeme Morrison, Hefin O'Hare, Dan Parks, Bernardo Stortoni.
