**Leone Nakarawa will make his first appearance at Scotstoun since re-joining Glasgow Warriors last month, as Dave Rennie’s men prepare for the visit of Zebre on Friday night.** A matchday squad containing 15 internationals will run out under the Friday night lights for the club’s first Guinness PRO14 outing in over a month, including the return of five players from Scotland duty in the first fallow week of the 2020 Guinness Six Nations. Oli Kebble will make his first appearance at tight-head in a Glasgow jersey, with the South African joining George Turner and Aki Seiuli in the front-row. Having scored in his last home outing for the club against Zebre in 2016, Nakarawa is paired alongside the recently re-signed Rob Harley in the second row. Ryan Wilson captains the team from the blindside flank, as Tom Gordon and Matt Fagerson return from Scotland camp and injury respectively to complete the pack. Behind the scrum there’s a familiar combination at half-back, with Pete Horne lining up at fly-half outside younger brother George. There are two notable inclusions in the Zebre line-up selected to face the Warriors, the first of which is the return of Maxime Mbandà in the starting XV chosen by coach Michael Bradley. After a knee operation on January 17, the Italian international was forced to miss the first two rounds of the Guinness Six Nations but is now back to full capacity and ready to play from the first minute in Glasgow. The second is the inclusion of permit player Riccardo Brugnara. The Rugby Calvisano prop, who has already featured for Benetton Rugby in two matches in the competition, is in line to make his official debut with Zebre. **Kick-off:** 19.35pm **How to watch:** Live on Premier Sports 1, DAZN, pro14.tv **Players to watch out for:** Leone Nakarawa v Mick Kearney Who else? All eyes will be on the big ex-Racing 92 man and no doubt Nakarawa will be keen to tear up Scotstoun once again, as he did during his first spell at the club. The Fijian has good pace for a lock, tonnes of power and perhaps the best offloading skills in the game – if he’s on form, nothing will stop him. Two of the men tasked with that lofty challenge will be Zebre’s Irish locks Mick Kearney and Ian Nagle. The two have worked well together since joining in the summer, helping each other settle into Italian life both on and off the pitch, and no doubt they’ll have a plan to stop Nakarawa on Friday. **Key stat**: The Warriors’ only victory in their last four outings at Scotstoun in all tournaments was 20-16 in the 1872 Cup clash with fierce rivals Edinburgh on 21 December. **Glasgow Warriors:** Glenn Bryce, Tommy Seymour, Nick Grigg, Stafford McDowall, DTH van der Merwe, Pete Horne, George Horne, Aki Seiuli, George Turner, Oli Kebble, Rob Harley, Leone Nakarawa, Ryan Wilson (capt), Tom Gordon, Matt Fagerson **Replacements**: Mesu Dolokoto, Alex Allan, Adam Nicol, Tim Swinson, Chris Fusaro, Jamie Dobie, Ruaridh Jackson, Kyle Steyn **Zebre**: Junior Laloifi, Paula Balekana, Jamie Elliott, Tommaso Boni (Capt), Pierre Bruno, Michelangelo Biondelli, Joshua Renton Daniele Rimpelli, Massimo Ceciliani, Eduardo Bello, Ian Nagle, Mick Kearney, Maxime Mbanda, Apisai Tauyavuca, Renato Giammarioli **Replacements**: Oliviero Fabiani, Riccardo Burgnara, Alexandru Tarus, Leonard Krumov, George Biagi, Marcello Violi, Enrico Lucchin, Jimmy Tuivaiti
