Philippe Clement and Ange Postecoglou have named this starting line-ups ahead of Rangers and Spurs’ Europa League clash at Ibrox.

All eyes are on Ibrox for the ‘Battle of Britain’, where a full house will hope to cheer Rangers to a memorable result, and former Celtic boss Postecoglou expects a warm reception when he leads his Tottenham team out.

The hosts and their Premier League opposition sit on ten points each from their five League Phase games so far and are looking to take a major step towards a top-eight finish and automatic qualification for the last 16.

Goals are expected, based on both sides’ games in the competition so far, and the managers have named attacking line-ups.

Clement’s Rangers side has Jack Butland in goal, with Jefte, Robin Propper, John Souttar and captain James Tavernier in defence.

Nedim Bajrami, Nicolas Raskin and Mohamed Diomande are in midfield, while Ridvan Yilmaz and Vaclav Cerny start either side of striker Hamza Igamane.

Spurs have former Celtic keeper Fraser Forster in goal, with Destiny Udogie, Radu Dragusin, Archie Gray and Pedro Porro in the back line.

Yves Bissouma, James Maddison and Rodrigo Bentancur are in midfield, with Son and Brennan Johnson supporting Timo Werner in attack.
