Rangers will host Ludogorets Razgrad at Ibrox this Thursday for their Europa League match.
The home team is in urgent need of their first win in the competition, while the Bulgarian team aims to secure a spot in the knockout playoffs.
Recently, Rangers achieved a decisive 5-0 victory against Annan Athletic in the Scottish Cup, highlighted by a hat-trick from Bojan Miovski.
However, their performance in the Europa League has been disappointing, with no wins, just one draw, and five losses, placing them in 33rd position with a total of one point.
Rangers team news
The team has signed three new players during the January window, but due to European regulations, they cannot play against Ludogorets.
Andreas Skov Olsen has joined on loan from Wolfsburg, with a €10 million buy option. Tochi Chukwuani, who arrived from Sturm Graz, made an impressive debut in the recent Scottish Cup match. Tuur Rommens has also come in from Westerlo. Coach Danny Röhl mentioned that these players won’t be available for Thursday’s match.
Röhl expects John Souttar to return by Monday, so he will miss this game. Connor Barron is out for eight to twelve weeks due to a knee injury from the match against Aberdeen, Dujon Sterling is dealing with a hamstring injury but might be back for the next game against Dundee, and both Derek Cornelius and Bailey Rice are ruled out long-term. Nejir Bajrami will also miss this match.
Rangers predicted lineup
Possible Rangers starting XI: Butland; Tavernier, Fernandez, Souttar, Meghoma; Raskin, Aasgaard; Gassama, Diomande, Moore; Chermiti.
When will the match kick off?
The match is set to start at 8 PM BST on Thursday, January 22nd.
