On Thursday night, Rangers hosts Sparta Prague at Ibrox as the pair clash in Group C of the Europa League.
Rangers form guideThe home team have been in good form going into this encounter, as the Scottish giants are unbeaten in their previous six games in all competitions, having recorded five wins and a draw.
A key to their recent good form has been a lethal attack, as Rangers have scored at least two goals in five of their six matches in the unbeaten run.
Rangers have struggled for victories in the Europa League lately, having recorded just two wins in their last nine matches in the competition. Their recent games in the Europa League have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in three of their previous four outings.
The Scottish giants have a strong recent home record in the Europa League, as they are unbeaten in their previous seven matches on home soil, having recorded five wins and two draws.
Sparta Prague form guideThe visitors prepared for this game by recording back-to-back victories over Bohemians 1905. They have also recorded four wins in their last six games, having also scored at least two goals in each of the wins.
Sparta are currently in second place in Group C, two points adrift of group leaders Real Betis. They are also above third-place Rangers courtesy of scoring more goals in their three matches so far.
The Czech Republic outfit has been woeful on their travels in the Europa League, as they are winless in their last six games in the competition, having suffered 11 defeats in their previous 13 away matches in the Europa League.
That record includes four straight away losses, conceding at least two goals in each defeat.
What am I backing?Both teams are in decent form. However, I believe that Rangers' strong home form will be enough to see the Scottish giants record a victory.
