The Scotland scrum-half will join brother Pete in becoming a Warriors centurion if he gets off the bench on Sunday.
Seven Scotland players will return to action in the game with prop Zander Fagerson starting alongside Angus Fraser, while South African back-row forward Henco Venter makes his debut.
Head coach Franco Smith told glasgowwarriors.org: “Even without some of their stars, Leinster have been a formidable force in the URC in recent seasons and we look forward to what will be a strong test this Sunday.”

The weather was dreadful but the playing surface was great so there is no real excuse for such another poor standard of play from both sides. Dragons just the better team. But, what a shocking decision by the TMO not to award the Fifita try. This pretty much sums up Welsh rugby with poor teams and poor officials. The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.
