Rangers are just hours away from joining Europe's elite once again when they kick-off their Champions League group stage campaign against Ajax.
The Dutch champions will provide a formidable test for Gio van Bronckhorst's side with the Ibrox side looking for an instant reaction to the derby day drubbing at the hands of Celtic. Rangers have saved some of their best performances in recent seasons for the European stage, with last season's run to the Europa League Final showing that the Ibrox side can compete with heavyweight clubs like Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig.
However, Ajax have shown they are more than capable in the Champions League having reached the knockout rounds of the competition in the last five seasons including a run to the semi-final in 2019. Alfred Schreuder will be keen to avoid repeating any mistakes made by fellow Eredivise side PSV Eindhoven, who Rangers saw off in the playoff round.
