Morné van den Berg returns to the starting line-up for the Lions in their United Rugby Championship clash against Glasgow Warriors in Scotland on Friday at 9.45pm. The scrumhalf is one of several changes after the Lions' 31-10 loss to Edinburgh, a match in which their scrum performed well but their lineout struggled due to communication issues and adverse weather conditions.
Lions assistant coach Wessel Roux said the team aims to improve set-piece performance, particularly lineouts and mauls, to pressure Glasgow. Hooker Tiaan Lange makes his first start, while Etienne Oosthuizen returns from injury in the second row. The Lions, having lost three straight matches, seek their first away win in Europe this tour before returning home for the November break.
