RANGERS face arguably their biggest match in a generation tonight, as they take on RB Leipzig in the first-leg of the UEFA Europa League semi-final here at the Red Bull Arena in East Germany.
10 years to the day from the late Sandy Jardine leading a march of Gers fans on Hampden in a show of incredible support for the club in one of their darkest hours, the Light Blues could be as little as 180 minutes away from next month’s final in Seville.
Gio van Bronckhorst and his team will be under no illusions, however, as to the enormity of their task, and the manager has named five changes from Saturday’s win at Fir Park to take on the Bundesliga outfit tonight.
In come John Lundstram, Calvin Bassey, Ryan Jack, Joe Aribo and Ryan Kent in place of Leon Balogun, Steven Davis, Scott Arfield, Amad and Fashion Jr.
Allan McGregor is in goal and will have James Tavernier, Connor Goldson, Bassey, Borna Barisic, John Lundstram, Jack, Glen Kamara, Aribo, Kent and Scott Wright all in front of him.
Balogun, Davis, Arfield, Amad and Fashion Jr all make the bench tonight next to Jon McLaughlin, Robby McCrorie, Leon King, James Sands, Alex Lowry, Cole McKinnon and Adam Devine.
It’s an 8pm UK kick-off, and you can enjoy live audio coverage on RangersTV, with the full match available from midnight.
