Rangers need to put last weekend's shock defeat to Motherwell behind them quickly, as on Thursday they head to Lisbon to take on Benfica in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16 tie.

Philippe Clement's side's 11-game winning run came to an end at Ibrox on Saturday in frustrating fashion - though Celtic's defeat to Hearts means they remain top of the Scottish Premiership.

The Belgian coach only took charge in October, but has already added the Scottish League Cup to his trophy cabinet and will hold hopes of ending Rangers' long wait for European silverware.

Before the blue side of Glasgow can dare to dream of anything like that, they'll have to get past 2022/23 Portuguese champions Benfica, who are battling at the top of the table again this term.

The hosts' recent form will give Rangers hope, however, having lost 5-0 to fellow title challengers Porto at the weekend and been knocked out of the Taça de Portugal by local rivals Sporting last week.
