Glasgow Warriors
W4, L0Glasgow have been imperious — one of only two sides to emerge from the pool phase unbeaten. The 28–3 demolition of Saracens at Scotstoun was a statement, and away wins at Sale and Clermont showed they can grind and dominate on the road. They've scored 115 points in four matches while conceding just 66.
RC Toulon
W3, L1Toulon stumbled on opening day in Edinburgh but recovered with three straight wins. The 45–34 shootout with Bath was vintage Toulon chaos, while the 27–25 squeaker against Munster showed they can survive tight finishes. They score freely (123 points) but concede at an uncomfortable rate — 106 against is the most of any qualifying side.

Extended Form
Glasgow Warriors12W, 1L
Wins against: Bulls, Benetton, Leinster (38–17), Munster, Saracens (28–3), Zebre, Edinburgh, Toulouse (28–21), Dragons (49–0), Sharks, Ospreys. Loss to: Connacht (10–15).
Glasgow's home record is extraordinary — 12 wins from 13. Scotstoun may only hold 7,351 but it has become one of European rugby's most intimidating venues. Scalps over Leinster, Toulouse, Saracens, and Bulls show they can beat absolutely anyone at home.
RC Toulon4W, 7L
Toulon have won just 1 of their last 6 Top 14 matches, including a 66–0 humiliation at La Rochelle, a 46–7 drubbing at Bordeaux, and a 36–20 loss at Perpignan. Domestic freefall.
Toulon's away form is abysmal — and their domestic form is even worse. They've won just 1 of their last 6 Top 14 matches. Their European form has been a welcome respite, but travelling to Scotstoun on the back of 5 defeats in 6 across all competitions is a dire trajectory.
Glasgow Warriors XV
Lineups not yet announced. Glasgow will likely lean on their Scotland contingent — Huw Jones and Sione Tuipulotu in the centres, the Fagerson brothers in the pack, Rory Darge at openside, and Adam Hastings at fly-half.
RC Toulon XV
Lineups not yet announced. Toulon will look to Garbisi at fly-half, Ollivon captaining the backrow, Sinckler at tighthead, and the dangerous back three of Villiere, Jaminet, and Tuicuvu.
Key Matchups
Toulon have the edge in individual star power — Garbisi and Ollivon are world-class. But Glasgow's midfield of Tuipulotu and Jones has been arguably the best centre pairing in European rugby this season. Scotstoun's narrow pitch negates Toulon's wide game and funnels play into the tight channels where Glasgow thrive.
Match Forecast
Glasgow should win this comfortably. The scorecard's +8 net is anchored by Glasgow's sensational home form (12 wins from 13, including Leinster, Toulouse, and Saracens at Scotstoun) and Toulon's catastrophic domestic trajectory. Toulon have won just 1 of their last 6 Top 14 matches, conceding 66 to La Rochelle and 46 to Bordeaux.
Toulon's hope lies in their European DNA. Garbisi can take over a game if given time and space, and Ollivon at his best is one of the finest backrowers in world rugby. But Glasgow at Scotstoun are a different proposition — the Warriors have lost just once at home all season.
Glasgow to win by 10+ and march into the quarter-finals — Toulon's dire domestic form catches up with them at Scotstoun.
