Rangers' chances of securing 2025/26 Champions League qualification were dealt a huge early blow in their play-off clash against Club Brugge.The Gers found themselves 1-0 down after just three

Veteran midfielder and captain Hans Vanaken has come up with big moments in the Champions League regularly for Brugge and is good for a goal and an assist from midfield. If Rangers give up 27 shots, like they did in Plzen, they will be punished by Brugge despite their lack of a clinical centre forward.

Rangers are two games away from making it into the Champions League proper as they vie with Club Brugge for a place in the league phase of the competition. The two sides will contest a spot over two legs with the Scottish side having already progressed through the second and third qualifying rounds.
