UEFA have laid out the possible permutations ahead of the penultimate round of fixtures in Europa League Group G with Rangers travelling to Feyenoord and Young Boys hosting Porto.
The Gers face a tough challenge in Rotterdam, not least because a former manager of the club, Dick Advocaat, will be in the opposing dugout.
Yet, he’s still working with the same set of players Jaap Stam had at his disposal. A squad that came to Ibrox in September and were not just defeated, but thoroughly outplayed.
Therefore, there should be no fear heading into this one, particularly as even a draw could secure progression to the knockout stages.
As stated on UEFA.com, if Rangers pull off a major feat and win at De Kuip, they will progress through to the knockout stages if Porto draw or lose.
Should the Gers secure a point tonight, that could also be enough to progress.
If Rangers draw and Porto lose, the Gers will be on eight points to Porto’s four, putting them in an unassailable position ahead of the final group game.
Heading into the fixture, three first-team stars are walking a suspension tightrope.
