Gloucester v Wasps preview
Gloucester fought back from 13-0 down to overcome Sale 18-16 at the AJ Bell Stadium in round one of the Premiership and they are hoping to kick on in their home clash with Wasps.
Wasps were disappointed to slip to defeat in their opening game against promoted London Irish. Although they dominated possession in the second half they couldn't find the attacking fluency to come from behind.
But Wasps retain a strong attacking line-up and if they tighten up in the first half and avoid errors and turnovers they can stay close to Gloucester.
The Cherry & Whites recorded home and away double-figure wins over Wasps last season and head coach Johan Ackermann has stuck with the starting line-up from last weekend with Jake Polledri and Callum Braley bolstering the bench after returning from the World Cup.
Wasps have made four changes to their team with Tommy Taylor, Thibaud Flament, Nizaam Carr and Juan de Jongh coming in.
Edinburgh v Scarlets preview
The pick of Saturday's Pro14 clashes pits unbeaten Scarlets against Edinburgh, who will look to bounce back from defeat at Leinster last time out after they had gained solid wins over Cardiff and Zebre.
Edinburgh won seven of their nine home matches last season and have winger Blair Kinghorn back in the side following his return from the World Cup.
Scarlets won only one away match last season - against the Kings in South Africa - and a solid Edinburgh pack can lay the foundations for a narrow success.
