Match Preview for Rangers v Fenerbahce
The Rangers are in a fantastic position to move on to the Europa League when Fenerbahce comes to the city on Thursday.
The Scotland side has a 3-1 lead in a total, amazing Jose Mourinho and the Turkish side the last time.
Anyone who comes from this tie, as the winners will face either Roma or Sports Bilbao in the quarter -finals.
The Rangers had a whole week to prepare for this race after being given the weekend by domestic action, while Mourinho’s men had the same luxury.
The hosts have played largely on the counterattack on the trip to Constantinople and can resort to the same tactic in Ibrox.
It was their second victory in three games since Barry Ferguson was appointed as a temporary director, replacing Phillipe Clement.
Mourinho went until he described the loss of 3-1 as a good result for Fenerbahce, examining how badly they were playing.
His side has not lost away from home since December 7, but their record in knockout European ties away from home is less impressive, admitting two or more in seven of their last 11 on the road.
Barry Ferguson says his team should light the fire in the crowd of Sold-Out Ibrox tomorrow night, as the Rangers are offering a place in the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals.
