Rangers vs Union St.Gilloise – Eintracht Frankfurt defeated Rangers in the UEFA Europa League championship game on penalties in May.

Three months later, they face a real chance of losing in the third round of UEFA Champions League qualifying. The first leg of their qualification match ended with Union St. Gilloise defeating Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team 2-0.

Seven days prior, they were totally outplayed on the field by a formidable foe. If Rangers want to make it through to the playoffs, they must put on an almost flawless performance in this rematch.

The return to European football has thus been recognised in some way by Union St. Gilloise, who competed admirably for the entire 90 minutes of their match last week.

The last time they participated in a European competition was during the 1964–1965 campaign, when they lost to Juventus in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup first round.

Union St. Gilloise didn’t join the first tier of Belgian football until last season, when they finished second and challenged Club Brugge for the championship.

Deniz Undav left for Brighton last summer, so the Belgians were without their top scorer from the previous campaign. Despite this, the team still has plenty of talent, and the result of the first leg makes this matchup particularly difficult for the Gers.

Rangers vs Union St.Gilloise – Betting Analysis

Union St. Gilloise never had the opportunity to play Rangers in the past because they only only participated in one European competition.

But when they defeated Rangers 2-0 in the first leg of this Champions League qualification match seven days ago, the Belgians undoubtedly made a lasting impression on the Scottish supporters.

The start of the season has the Rangers not looking good at all. On the first day of the new Premiership season, they narrowly defeated Livingston, and we can easily see them finding it difficult to get going against a formidable Union St. Gilloise squad here.
