The fixture will see Franco Smith’s squad return to Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi on Friday 30 August (kick-off 7.30pm UK time) to take on the Italian franchise, having earned a 40-9 victory in Parma last weekend to move top of the BKT United Rugby Championship standings after 15 rounds.

Preparations for the new campaign are already underway, with Scotland fly-half Adam Hastings, British and Irish Lions prop Rory Sutherland and Exeter tight-head Patrick Schickerling already confirmed as new arrivals ahead of the new season getting underway.

Scotland internationals including Huw Jones and Jamie Dobie, in addition to up-and-coming talents such as Jack Mann and Ben Afshar, have also committed their futures to the club, as the Warriors continue to build ahead of the new campaign.

Further pre-season fixture information will be confirmed in due course.
