Rangers Insights.

Rangers got off to a flyer with a 2-0 win at Standard Liège, a victory that not only saw them score in both halves, but also witnessed striker Kemar Roofe net the longest strike in UEFA Europa League (UEL) history with a shot from 54.6 yards out. The team from Glasgow are now unbeaten in 15 competitive matches (W13, D2), and manager Steven Gerrard’s win-rate in European football at the helm of Rangers stands at an impressive 52.77%. The hosts’ 2-1 win over Galatasaray in their UEL qualification final made it four European home fixtures where both teams scored, and also means they’ve lost just once at Ibrox in the UEL since the beginning of 2011/12 (W13, D5, L1). They’ve also won three of their previous four European home games against Polish opposition (L1).

Lech Insights.

Both teams scored in both halves as Lech Poznań fell to a 4-2 defeat versus Benfica in their UEL opener, and the seven-time Polish champions now travel here winless in three competitive games, and after witnessing both teams score in their last five. They have, however, managed to score before HT in three of their four European fixtures this term. The visitors have never won a UEL away game when conceding first, but cruised through the qualification phase this season after a trio of away wins that registered a combined 10-1 aggregate scoreline. Notably, seven of their ten goals were netted after HT, and four after the 80th minute.
