Rangers vs Bayer Leverkusen looks set to go ahead at Ibrox on Thursday night after UEFA provided an update stating two other games had been postponed.
Earlier on Wednesday afternoon, Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri claimed on Twitter that a UEFA meeting was in session tasked with making a decision on the fate of the Inter Milan vs Getafe first leg clash.
He ventured further to claim that it was even possible that all Europa League last 16 first leg fixtures could be postponed.
However, it seems the governing body will not be taking that most severe of approaches, and instead have postponed just two matches.

The statement concludes by adding that decisions on any potential rearrangements will follow in due course, but there is no mention of uncertainty around any of the other fixtures.
Therefore, it seems at this stage as though Rangers will host Leverkusen tomorrow night as scheduled, in front of a packed stadium.
The Gers are unbeaten at home in Europe this campaign, but come up against arguably the form team in German football.
