Rangers vs FC Midtjylland Preview

Rangers vs FC Midtjylland

Competition – UEFA Europa League

Stadium – Ibrox Stadium

Date: 15th August 2019

Kick-off time – 19:45 BST 

Rangers will be looking to continue their march towards the Europa League group stage for the second consecutive season when they take on FC Midtjylland in this game.

The Gers have been a much-improved team since Steven Gerrard took over last season and the Liverpool legend will be looking to finally topple Celtic this season, but it would be a great achievement if they reach the Europa League group stage again.

Rangers have been in impressive form after winning their last three games in all competitions including a 4-2 drubbing of this opponent in the first leg of this encounter.

Midtjylland come here with little hope of progressing after they were beaten 4-2 in the first leg at home.

They are, however, one of the best teams in Denmark and come here after securing 3 consecutive wins in the league, two of which came away from home.

With little to play for, the visitors might decide to be a little more courteous and make it hard for Rangers to achieve the scoreline they did in the first leg.

Bookmakers have priced Rangers up as odds-on favourites to come out on top in this game while Midtjylland have an uphill task ahead of them being 2 goals down from the first leg.

Goal markets point to an exciting game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading odds-on while Jermain Defoe is clear favourite to score the opening goal of the game.
