Rangers will face FC Porto this Thursday evening in their final UEFA Europa League group stage match.
The Portuguese team is currently ninth with 14 points, just outside the top eight. They need to win to advance without going through the playoff elimination round.
Rangers have already been eliminated, having only four points from seven matches, but they are on an eight-game winning streak across all competitions.

The Scottish team will be without Connor Barron, Bailey Rice, and Derek Cornelius due to injuries. John Souttar is also sidelined with a knock and didn’t travel to Portugal. Dujon Sterling is recovering from a muscle injury and is expected to train on Thursday but isn’t making the trip.
Forward Danilo will not play due to personal reasons as his partner is about to give birth. Additionally, the recent signings of Andreas Skov Olsen, Tochi Chukwuani, and Tuur Rommens cannot participate because they weren’t registered for the Europa League squad.
