Rangers vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction: Europa League on 12.03.2020

Rangers face Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie at Ibrox.

The Glasgow team came through their tie with Braga in impressive circumstances in the last round, with Steven Gerrard’s team winning the home leg 3-2 after coming back from 2-0 down, before winning the away leg 1-0.

Leverkusen were also impressive, defeating FC Porto 5-2 on aggregate after winning both legs.

They are also fourth in the Bundesliga, eight points adrift of leaders Bayern Munich, while Rangers are second in the Scottish Premiership.

Team news

Filip Helander is back in training following a foot injury, while Ryan Jack, Jermain Defoe and Glenn Middleton have all been ruled out.

James Tavernier and Scott Arfield are also expected to miss out.

Kevin Volland has been ruled out for the season, while Lars Bender and Niklas Lomb are being assessed for a jip injury and illness respectively.

Meanwhile, Sven Bender is out with a knee problem.

Rangers vs Leverkusen Prediction

Rangers are struggling domestically but were very impressive in the way they came through their last round with Braga.

The addition of Ianis Hagi has been a real boost for the former Liverpool midfielder, but they are now 13 points adrift in the Scottish Premiership title race.

Nonetheless, they will be able to put all their focus on the Europa League, but face a difficult side to overcome in Leverkusen.

Peter Bosz’s side have been much improved this season and have been excellent both domestically and in Europe.

The manner with which they beat Porto was particularly convincing, while they are fourth in a very competitive Bundesliga.

Kai Havertz, Leon Bailey, Moussa Diaby and Exequiel Palacios are all very exciting young players, with Bosz coaching them into a coherent passing side that looks to dominate possession.

Favorites with 22Bet with odds of 6/5, expect Leverkusen to come out on top on Thursday and over two legs.
