Rangers will need a draw against Fenerbahce at Ibrox on Thursday night to qualify for the last eight of the Europa League.
The Gers are leading 3-1 on aggregate from the first leg, and they will start as favourites at home against Jose Mourinho’s Turkish outfit.
Rangers reached the final of this competition back in 2022, and they will be aiming for a similar feat under Barry Ferguson, especially after a dismal domestic campaign.
Ferguson has no reason to change his system, but he could make a few changes from the previous game. Before that, here’s a look at all you need to know about where to watch the game later today.
How to watch Rangers vs Fenerbahce
TV Channel: The game will be broadcast live on TNT Sports 2. Kick-off: 8 pm.

Robbin Popper picked up an injury in the previous game against Fenerbahce and he is unlikely to feature in the second leg.
Leon Balogun was outstanding in the last game alongside John Souttar and James Tavernier, and the veteran defender deserves to start.
Jefte did well in the first leg and he should retain his place. Ferguson needs to decide on whom to pick for the right-back role. Ridvan Yilmaz did well in the last game, but Dujon Sterling would be a better option for this game.
The 25-year-old is a natural right-back, and Ferguson needs to make a big decision on his selection. His inclusion makes a lot of sense.
The midfield trio of Mohamed Diomande, Nico Raskin, and Connor Barron should retain their places in the side.
Cyriel Dessers was outstanding in the first leg and could have had a hat-trick. He will definitely lead the line, with Vaclav Cerny dropping slightly behind him.
Rangers predicted starting XI: Butland, Sterling, Tavernier, Balogun, Souttar, Jefte, Diomande, Barron, Raskin, Cerny, Dessers.
