The Bulls know better than most how hard it is to beat the Glasgow Warriors on their own patch.
They have travelled to Scotland twice this season and returned home empty-handed, suffering defeat in a URC clash in October before falling agonisingly short in a Champions Cup quarter-final in April.
Yet, as Johan Ackermann's side prepare for Saturday's United Rugby Championship semi-final, there is a growing sense that this is not quite the same challenge. Glasgow finished top of the regular season log and are one of the most dangerous teams in the competition, but they will not be playing at Scotstoun.
Instead, the semi-final has been moved to Murrayfield in Edinburgh due to preparations for this year's Commonwealth Games, taking Glasgow away from the compact stadium that has become one of the URC's most intimidating venues.
