Prediction: 1-1
Rangers
Eleda Stadion will be packed when Malmo and Rangers lock horns in an eagerly-awaited Europa League game. The Blues failed to upset Sparta Prague in the Champions League playoffs, but they are brimming with confidence following a thrilling 4-0 win over Hacken. Bear in mind, though, that the likes of Gudjohnsen, Haksabanovic, Lewicki, Holmquist Vecchia, Moisander, and Tinnerholm have been struggling with injuries of late.
The Gers, on the other hand, aim to build on the League Cup win (3-0) over Dundee FC. Rangers, though, are not regarded as good travellers and, taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the cards at Eleda Stadion. Ivory Coast midfielder Mohammed Diomande should be recalled to the starting XI, while the likes of Danilo Pereira, Rabbi Matondo, and Ridvan Yilmaz continue to miss out with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Tom Lawrence):
Tom Lawrence is a Welsh footballer who plays as a winger for Championship side Derby County. Born in Wrexham (Wales) on January 13, 1994, Tom Lawrence played for Everton and Manchester United during his youth career.
The 180-cm-tall footballer, though, made no more than one appearances for the Red Devils in the Premier League as he was immediately sent on loan to Carlisle United. The Wales international played for the likes of Yeovil Town, Leicester City, Rotherham United, Blackburn Rovers, Cardiff City and Ipswich Town as well before signing a contract with Derby County. Tom Lawrence’s main position is left winger, but he is used as both second striker and right winger as well.
The Derby County man made his Wales debut in November 2015 in a 3-2 loss to Netherlands. The highlight of his career is the goal he scored against Georgia in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers. His preferred foot is right and he wears No. 10 jersey at Derby County.
Highlighted Team (Rangers):
Glasgow Rangers are one of the two synonyms for Scottish Football. Glasgow Rangers were founded back in 1872 and they have been playing an important role in the Scottish top flight ever since. The Gers won their 54th Scottish Premier League title in the 2010/2011 season, but winning of European Cup Winners’ Cup trophy in 1972 is considered the club’s biggest success.
Glasgow Rangers defeated Dynamo Moscow in the final of the competition, with the likes of Stein and Johnston (two goals) scoring for the Scottish side. Celtic are considered the club’s biggest rivals and there have always been fireworks when the two teams meet in the Old Firm derby. The likes of Paul Gascoigne, David Weir, Stefan Klos, Chris Boyd, Ian Durrant and Kenny Miller are some of Rangers’ former notable players.
It has to be noted that the Gers welcome their rivals at Ibrox Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 50,817. Rangers’ support is largely drawn from the Protestant Unionist community.
