There's a train of thought that being in the latter stages of European competition might derail Rangers’ title bid - especially with Celtic NOT playing on the continent during the run-in to the season.
But Giovanni van Bronckhorst is having none of that. Having savoured the exhilaration of that victory over Borussia Dortmund in the last round of the Europa League campaign, the Rangers boss is desperate for more of the same when Red Star Belgrade turn up in Govan tonight.
The Dutchman wants to send the Serbs packing and make real progress in this competition, having seen Rangers under previous boss Steven Gerrard fail to overcome the last 16 hurdle in the previous two seasons.
