Rangers welcome Benfica to Ibrox in the Europa League this evening.

The pair played out a thrilling draw in their first meeting in the group stage, with Rangers recovering from a disastrous start to take a two-goal lead, only for Darwin Nunez to break Scottish hearts with a last-gasp equaliser in Portugal.

Steven Gerrard’s side are level on points with Benfica at the top of the group, with two wins and one draw, and a victory tonight would put Rangers in pole position to finish as the No 1 seed heading into the knockout rounds.
