Gloucester v Bristol could be 'one of best' - Lam

"With Bristol we know what we're getting - it's probably a supercharged version of the way we attack," Gloucester director of rugby George Skivington told BBC Radio Gloucestershire.

"We know it's going to be fast, we know it's going to be a lot of actual minutes of running round.

"I think our attack is closer to Bristol and they do a lot of good stuff at set-pieces as well. I don't think our identity is a million miles away.

"They are very wide-to-wide and they have some great one-off moments and Pat's very sharp with the areas he targets in games."

Gloucester finished ninth last season and were the second-lowest scorers in the league, ahead of only Newcastle.

However, the signings of Wales scrum-half Tomos Williams and fly-half Gareth Anscombe last summer have helped revolutionise their backline.

When the two sides met in September's reverse fixture in round two at Ashton Gate, Gloucester edged an 85-point thriller 44-41.

Lam said they were "shocked" by the Cherry and Whites that day.

"It's fair to say they shocked us in round two - we didn't expect they'd come out playing that way, and having Tomos Williams and Gareth Anscombe and Santi Carreras they certainly played to their strengths," Lam said.
