Giovanni van Bronckhorst faces an uphill battle to secure Rangers the unlikeliest of victories against Ajax on Tuesday after yet more fitness doubts emerged in his ranks.
The Gers, who have endured a nightmare Champions League group stage campaign so far this season, can still qualify for the Europa League knockout stages under the Ibrox lights should they beat the Dutch giants by five goals or more. And despite how unlikely that eventuality may be, the Dutchman will need his strongest players available if he is to stand any chance of completing that feat. With an injury crisis at the heart of defence currently, Van Bronckhorst knows that the odds are stacked massively against him.
And in new a video clip broadcast by Sky on Monday afternoon, three of his main players - namely Ben Davies, Ridvan Yilmaz and John Lundstram - aren't in training ahead of the visit of Alfred Schreuder's side, plunging any hopes of a sensational scalping further into doubt.
