Match Thread Rangers v Lech Poznan - 20:00 Thursday - BT Sport

[zammo]

No easy teams this far into the competition.

But I reckon 2-1 to us.

 

[grant1986]

I know its a bizarre way to look at it but if we have anyone one card away from a suspension then tonight might be the time to take the card and miss the Benfica game(s). Its the matches against Liege and Poznan that will determine our qualification I suspect.

Fair point actually, didn’t think of it that way.

I’m not ruling out winning this group and see no reason why we can’t at least share the spoils with Benfica over the 2 games. This Rangers team knows how to play in Europe, particularly away.

 

[Kingging]

Could see this being similar to the Livi game with us taking a comfortable lead and then playing within ourselves. Think we'll win 3-0

 

[Byson]

3-0

WATP

 

[Sandbear]

As much as I understand folk saying that they are more worried about Sunday and it’s more important, I’m more of the wins in Europe get you noticed outside of Scotland the prestige it gives the club cannot be ignored and there is also the small matter of £500k for the WIN. Killie can wait win this one then start thinking about those no marks.

 

[pollokparkloyal]

I can’t remember the last time I thought like this.
Stranraer maybe.
Sorry, St.Joseph’s second leg.
I was petrified of the first leg!

That game was an absolute slog as well. Can’t believe that was 10 months ago.

Think we will win tonight but not easy.

 

[dougiem]

Rangers 3-0 win.

 

[Prestwick_ Bear]

2 : 0 please, sets us up well in the group for the double header v Benfica.

Lets do it.

 

[Frajo]

Will take a win in any form tonight

 

[Langland]

I stuck a tenner on 3-1 but as above would be happy with any form of win. I think our defence might make the difference tonight.

 

[Diego Maradona]

All the sponsorship on the banners removed I notice.

 

[asialoyal]

I love European nights.

 

[SuperGers07]

I’d start Itten, but Morelos needs a goal big time.

Barker will probably start also

 

[rangeral]

All the sponsorship on the banners removed I notice.

Only UEFA sponsors allowed hence why not on display

also the netting has gone

 

[Spinning Blue]

I am more than confident in our team to win. 3-0.

DAZN here done a cracking highlights program with a wee feature on Kent and Gerard where Kent talked about him as an idol. Brilliant pic at the end.

Note - the dots aren't smudges on my TV, just some shitey filter the producer decided to use.

bt sport did the same

 

[BrooklynBlue]

If they're suspect at the back, maybe Hagi to create the opportunities...?

It's great to be in a position where we have good options. Very curious to see the team.

 

[Bluegenebop]

As they are a very attacking team and we are not too bad up front we should be expecting an end-to-end game with plenty of goals. Rangers 1-0

 

[derbybear]

This could be our most difficult game. We are always better coming from behind

 

[Kathmandu]

This should really be on RTV as pay per view. Means season ticket holders who would normally be at the game can’t see it unless they have BT ( or a dodgy stream)

 

[AdiCR2]

Early goals in this. Keep it tight at the back and it’ll be cruise control.

BT have bought sole rights I think that’s the issue?

We don't have live rights so can't offer it

 

[billybluehat]

more likely to finish 4-3 to us if they are so attack minded and crap in defense. Having said that, I'd happily take the 1-0 and 3pts mate as you predict.

 

[evo14]

I’m incredibly confident about tonight. Don’t see anything other than a convincing Rangers win. 4-0 to The Famous.

 

[TibbsyBear]

Tough game tonight and will be interesting to see the front line with Morelos not firing on all cylinders.


6 nil Rangers, Morelos hat-trick.

 

[Kathmandu]

We don't have live rights so can't offer it

Dodgy stream it is then

 

[Jim Lahey]

I'll take 1 - 0 right now please

[Braeside58]

Weather conditions may play a big part tonight but hopefully we can overcome this and get another victory.
3-1. Alfie to score.

 

[Biniaro11]

So many glasses half full guys on here.
Hope you’re all correct.

 

[IM BLUE]

BBC Scotland have no commentary of our game again. Surely they can have commentators in the studio watching the game on TV and provide a radio commentary. I'll need to rely on this thread for updates.

Tbh, the match thread would be less infuriating that listening the Radio Scotland.

you might get updates on 5 Live?

 

[rossgers]

Concerned that after all our recent good results it will be easy for the players to get complacent in this game against unfashionable opposition. 3-0 Gers

First European group stage game we've been clear favourites in for a long, long time.

Let's live it up Rangers.

UEFA can't seem to list our starting eleven on their site, but here's the subs.

[snoopyboymason]

Will take any win

 

[Boab4]

Hopefully see Zungu at some point.

 

[der_hammer10]

Kick up the arse for Morelos, benched for a big Euro tie when he has such a good record in Europe.

 

[BrooklynBlue]

Alfie on the bench again. Thought we might have gone Jack-Kamara.

 

[Gerihatrick]

BBC Scotland have no commentary of our game again. Surely they can have commentators in the studio watching the game on TV and provide a radio commentary. I'll need to rely on this thread for updates.

You’ll get audio on RTV

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Hopefully see Zungu at some point.

He's had one, 1 hour, training session. Gerrard even commented that he would 'feel it when he gets home' LOL. I'd say 'no chance' for a wee while yet.

 

[rfc_chris_rfc]

Good team, good to see zungu on the bench as well.

 

[Boab4]

Yet he's on the bench.
