Talking Tactics
Rangers ‘keeper Allan McGregor told the DailyRecord this week the key to a win tonight will be about ‘the organisationof the boys’ and crucially ‘sticking to the game plan’.
This will be vitally important with both starstrikers in Jermain Defoe (knee) and Alfredo Morelos (suspended) missing.
Gerrard could give a start to Florian Kamberi alongside the lively Hagi and Ryan Kent. The rest of the team may remain unchanged from the first leg. Although, Joe Aribo may feel hard done by after notching his side’s opener last week.
Braga are expected to make several changes with both Vitor Tormena and Wallace out injured. Goalscorer Andre Horta could feature alongside winger Galeno who’s created more goals (four) than any of his team-mates in the competition so far.
Goalscorer Odds
With Morelos watching on,Kamberi is best placed at 12/5 to score anytime for Rangers. First leg hero Hagi is 16/5 anytime and28/1 to score 2 or more again.
Further down, Aribo is at 13/2 and defender Connor Goldson at 10’s to add to his three goals this campaign.
Rangers will be wary of the home side’s attacker Paulinho who already has six goals in this competition. He’s 16/5 to open the scoring and 11/2 to notch a brace or more.
