How did Rangers' remaining UEFA Europa League opponents get on this week?

Rangers have now played three games in this season's newly-formatted UEFA Europa League league-phase and now sit in 11th place with six points.

Following last night's (Thursday) emphatic 4-0 win over FCSB in Glasgow, the Ibrox side added to their well-earned 2-0 opening day win over Malmo in Sweden, and firmly bounced back from a disappointing 4-1 defeat to Lyon earlier this month.

The competition's new format means that those teams who finish inside the top eight will automatically qualify for its knockout round, whereas those placed ninth to 24th will compete in a play-off round to progress.

The remaining teams (between 24 and 36) will be eliminated, with no access to the UEFA Conference League as per previous seasons.

From this point on, Rangers are still to play Olympiacos (A), Nice (A), Tottenham Hotspur (H), Manchester United (A), and Union Saint-Gilloise (H).

Here's how Rangers' five remaining UEFA Europa League opponents got on this week:

Malmo 0 – 1 Olympiacos

Ferenvaros 1 – 0 Nice

Tottenham Hotspur 1 – AZ Alkmaar

Fenerbahce 1 – 1 Manchester United

Midtjyland 1 – 0 Union Saint-Gilloise
