Edinburgh Rugby will trek west to take on its bitter rivals, the Glasgow Warriors, in a festive Scottish derby during Round 8 of the United Rugby Championship

The match also will serve as the first half of the 1872 Cup, which is contested each year between the clubs. 

Glasgow has won the last two cups, with Edinburgh not having owned the trophy since 2022. 

Last season, Glasgow and Edinburgh met twice during the holiday season, on Dec. 23 and Dec. 30, with the Warriors taking the first match, and Edinburgh taking the second. 

The Warriors went on to win the URC Grand Final, taking home that hardware as well. 

Here's what to know as Glasgow Warriors take on Edinburgh Rugby on Dec. 22:
