Standard Liege welcome Rangers to the Stade Maurice Dufrasne on Thursday night for Europa League action. It is the third season in a row that Standard will compete in the group stage of the UEL. Neither of their last two attempts to make it to the knockout stage were successful with last season's competition placing them in a tough group that also featured Arsenal. As well as Rangers, Standard will also take on Benfica and Lech Poznan for a knockout stage spot. This is also the third consecutive season that Rangers have made the UEL group stage. Last season saw the Scottish side embark on a particularly impressive European run that featured victories over Braga, Porto, and Feyenoord. It eventually came to an end with a Round of 16 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen.

Standard are unbeaten in their last 14 home UEL matches, a run that includes draws against Ajax and Arsenal, and victories over Sevilla and Eintracht Frankfurt. These stats paint an even duel. Back a draw.
