Our prediction: Rangers v Galatasaray

This could be one of Rangers' toughest tests of the season, but the lack of fans should take the sting out of what would have been an apocalyptic atmosphere generated by the away support.

In Alfredo Morelos, they boast the finest player on the pitch, yet to approach his prime, with a penchant for a big goal in the Europa League.

This could go either way, but if Rangers hold firm early on, Morelos could be the man to break a deadlock.

Our prediction: Rangers 2-1 Galatasaray
