Rangers Champions League injury blow with two key men ruled out of Union Saint-Gilloise match

Rangers duo Ryan Kent and John Souttar will miss this evening's Champions League third round qualifier first leg against Union Saint-Gilloise.

Neither the winger or defender have travelled to Belgium for tonight's crucial clash after featuring in Saturday's 2-1 Premiership victory at Livingston. It's a big blow for boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst who will now have to rejig his defence and attack. Ben Davies is drafted into the squad after the centre-back's arrival from Liverpool and Ridvan Yilmaz is also included.

The Light Blues will find out what two teams will await them in the play-off round later today. It is also a game too early for striker Alfredo Morelos as he continues his recovery from a thigh problem and fellow Rangers forward Kemar Roofe is also out. Van Bronckhorst says it is important that his team do not underestimate their opposition this evening after they reached second in the Belgian First Division and Champions League football one year after promotion from the second tier.
