Glasgow coach Sean Lineen welcomes back Chris Cusiter into his side for the Heineken Cup clash against Biarritz and insists they must make the most out of their home advantage.

The Warriors make just one change to the side that beat Cardiff Blues 21-5, with former British Lion Cusiter recovering from flu to replace Colin Gregor at scrum-half.

Lineen’s side have been hit hard in recent weeks with the outbreak of the flu bug around the camp, but he is keen not to dwell on the problems and believes their opening game at Firhill could make or break Glasgow’s European campaign.

He said: “This is the first time during my time here that we've had a home start and we need to make it count.

“When in such an intense European competition, the crowd can make a huge difference.

“We need to start well instead of making a cameo appearance later in the competition.”
