Glasgow Rangers vs Young Boys
Rangers tried to forget the poor results in the local competition when facing BSC Young Boys this weekend. They only need a draw to qualify for the Europa League Group G qualifiers. Clash opened at Ibrox.
Last Sunday (8/12) they had just appeared in the Scottish League Cup final against eternal rivals, Celtic. Unfortunately, they lost through a single goal by Christopher Jullien (60 ‘), despite being helped by a red card Jeremie Frimpong (63’).
Apart from the nightmare, they still dominate the Group G standings with a collection of 8 points, one point difference from FC Porto and BSC Young Boys, and three points from Feyenoord in the caretaker position. Therefore, they only need to draw to advance to the knockout phase.
Opportunities were wide open because they would appear as hosts. The record at Ibrox is also impressive with 8 consecutive wins in various competitions, including two UEL parties facing Feyenoord (1-0) and FC Porto (2-0).
Meanwhile, BSC Young Boys will come with minimal capital in the away party, which only wins 1 time against FC Sion (3-4), the rest draw with Feyenoord (1-1), even losing to Servette (3-0) and FC Basel (3-0). The situation worsened following the injury of six players ahead of tomorrow’s visit.
Apart from that problem, they had won 2-1 when they host Rangers as host in the second week, and last Sunday (8/12) had just won 1-0 over FC Luzern in the Swiss League continued. So, their moral condition is better than the host who just failed to win the trophy.
Our Prediction: 1
Odds: 1.83
