RANGERS could face a European shoot-out clash with Tottenham next month after the pots for the Europa League play-off round were confirmed.
Steven Gerrard's side booked their place in the third round with a 5-0 win over Lincoln Red Imps on Thursday night.
The Gers will now take on Dutch outfit Willem II next week as they look to move within 90 minutes of a third successive group stage appearance.
The draw for the final qualification round will take place in Nyon this afternoon and UEFA have confirmed that Rangers, who are unseeded, have been placed in Group 4.
And that could see them handed a glamour Battle of Britain tie with Spurs if Jose Mourinho's side can overcome Shkendija in the next round.
Turkish giants Galatasaray could also lie in wait as they prepare to face Hadjuk Split for a place in the play-offs, while APOEL and Bosnian side Zrinjski are also possible opponents for Gerrard's side.
The final seeded tie in Group 4 is between Standard Liege and Vojvodina as Rangers get an insight into what could lie ahead as they look to continue their European journey this term.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
