Rangers must pull off a famous Ibrox comeback today to earn a place in the Europa League final, with RB Leipzig out to bag their first-ever major trophy.

A late Angelino goal gave the Bundesliga side a 1-0 aggregate lead last week.

While the young German club are yet to reach a European final or win a major trophy, Rangers’ history is steeped in silverware and a victory in this semi-final tie would set up a chance to win their first European honour since 1972.

An Old Firm draw with Celtic on the weekend means this is the Gers only significant chance of a title this season, while Leipzig lost to Borussia Monchengladbach to leave them outside the Bundesliga’s top four.
