Scrum-half George Horne will complete his comeback from a foot injury when Glasgow host Benetton on Saturday.

The Scotland international has been out since December but will start in Glasgow’s final match of the shortened regular Guinness PRO14 campaign.

Niko Matawalu is also in line for his first appearance since December after the Fijian was named on the bench.

Andy Powell is a beserker!

Head coach Danny Wilson said: “It’s great to welcome George back – having the likes of him and Fraser (Brown) back available to us is a massive boost.

“Benetton will have their internationals back with them, and like us they will be looking to build some momentum ahead of next weekend’s European fixtures.”
