So it's 'official' - Malmo it is.
They scraped past HJK after a 2-2 draw last night.
They are certainly a team to be respected but not feared. I think we will be too good for them but looking forward to it.
With an increase to 23k allowed for this Saturday v Livvy - I would hope that we will have nearer the 30-35k mark allowed in for the Malmo game.
As an aside - all the best to George Edmundson on his move to Ipswich. I don't think Gerrard ever forgave him for the 'Covid' non-issue.

i think rangers will get to the groups tbh.
solid in europe the past few years, quick in the transfer market, back the manager.

It's taken several years but at last there is a bit of structure and stability.
I don't think the part which Ross Wilson has played in this can be downplayed. He's done a great job as DoF/Sporting DIrector.
Identifies a target early doors and is receiving the trust/backing of the board to pursue them.

I think we have all tried to move on from the Dundee vote debacle.

Think it will be tougher than people think. They are 10 games in to their season and have some quality players.
In the last 10 years they have played Scottish opposition 3 times and knocked us all out. If it was mid season I'd be confident but the time of year is a great leveller. Guys like Helander, Barisic and Sakala only started pre season last week weeks and have only played 45 minutes here and there whilst Morelos, Kamara and Roofe are all out and Aribo has been isolating for 10 days so hasn't featured much. Tough enough at the best of times but going in without key players and some other key players rusty and we could be in for a tough night next week.

It wont be easy by any stretch of the imagination.
But we need to go into these ties confident and assured that our aim is the CL groups so we need to get the business done.

Think it will be a challenging tie, but I would be disappointed not to go through

They won't be mugs but I'll be surprised if Rangers don't go through. The squad is in a good place and whilst maybe not as sharp as would be ideal should be enough to win this.
