The clash between Rangers and Servette FC kicks off on Wednesday at Ibrox Stadium. This is the third round of Champions League qualifying stage and things are beginning to heat up.

Servette FC managed to get to this stage with an aggregate score of 3-3 after defeating Genk in the second round.

Rangers scored eight goals in the last ten outings for an average of 0.8 a game in this tournament. They conceded 26 and managed a clean sheet in two of these matches.

Servette FC hit the target three times in the last two outings in this tournament, which creates an average of 1.5 goals a game. They conceded 1.5 per match for a total of three against, while claiming a clean sheet zero times as well.

Rangers enters the tournament at this stage, having opened the Scottish Premiership on the worst possible note. Losing 1-0 away to Kilmarnock was not in their script for the opener and need to up their game here. Servette arrives at this stage having yet to win in regular time, but they've proven dangerous goalscorers. It makes for an even encounter.

Rangers vs Servette FC Prediction

Rangers Form

Consistency has not been a trademark for Rangers recently, and their last three matches first saw them sharing the points in a 2-2 draw with Hearts. This was followed by a 0-3 win against St. Mirren, before they lost 1-0 against Kilmarnock. Rangers claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Champions League, which also saw them drawing one and losing four matches, in which they scored eight and conceded 17 goals.

Servette FC Form

Having collected three points from their previous three matches without winning, Servette FC are on the lookout for a win again. Against FC Zuerich, they settled for a 2-2 draw, before splitting the points with Genk in a 2-2 draw. In their latest match, they once again had to settle for a single point after drawing 1-1 against FC Stade Lausanne-Ouchy.

Bookmakers have Rangers down as rather big favourites for the win, when Servette FC arrive at Ibrox Stadium. While it might prove problematic, we still believe they will come through and deliver.
