On August 22, Ibrox Stadium (Glasgow) will host the first leg of the decisive stage of the Champions League Qualification, in which Glasgow Rangers will compete with PSV. The battle will start at 21:00 CET.

Glasgow Rangers

The club is a real legend of Scottish and world football. At the same time, it is also a team that has survived bankruptcy and painful reconquest. The grandee was not given any concessions – it rose from the amateur divisions. Nevertheless, the team reached the peak, being under the rule of Gerrard – it returned the championship title and made a good noise in the European competition. Then Steven left and, if at first it still managed, by inertia, to reach the final in the Europa League also under the rule of van Bronckhorst, then “the Light Blues” became just the No. 2 force in the Premiership again. And there is no reason to believe that Beale, who is “Stevie G’s” ex-assistant, will somehow change the state of things. He managed to lose the cup final in the spring and started the new season with a defeat. The Champions League has become an outlet. The team overcame the best club of Switzerland, Servette, there. At the same time, a 2-1 score at the home arena was followed by the fact that the opponent opened the score, but Tavernier brought a draw in the end, which was pretty enough for the overall success.

PSV

The team is quoted approximately at the same level with Rangers, with the proviso that there are not 2, but 3 grandees in the Netherlands. Only the recent years, when the team was headed by both Schmidt and van Nistelrooy, gave an opportunity to take a maximum of the 2nd place in the Eredivisie. Moreover, Peter Bosz was returned to his homeland after not the best attempts to prove himself in Germany and France, including the goal to secure the long-awaited title. The ex-coach of Ajax is quite successful so far. He won the Dutch Super Cup in a dispute with Feyenoord on his debut. Moreover, Sturm from Graz was knocked out in the previous round of qualification with super confidence. Everything was decided already in the first match, which the team won with a 4-1 score at the home arena. Speaking about the battle in Austria, it played to win – 3-1.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

The clubs met each other in the Champions League qualification a year ago. Then Rangers won in the end (that happened on the away field after a 2-2 score in Glasgow). By the way, that was the third case in 4 head-to-head confrontations, when the Scottish team was stronger.

Predictions

Bookmakers are more loyal to the Dutch club, even if it plays on the away field. Still, the Scottish rival will definitely give battle at the home arena to a historically convenient opponent, so, we are waiting for “total: over 2.5” (odd: 1.74).
