Rangers will take part in their biggest fixture in 14 years on Wednesday night when they face Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Europa League final.
It’s been nearly a decade and a half since Rangers’ last European final, where the Scottish side suffered a 2-0 defeat to Zenit Saint Petersburg at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester. Close to 200,000 Gers fans made the trip to Manchester in 2008, and the 100,000 fans expected in Seville this time round will be hoping for a much better outcome.
The 3-2 victory over RB Leipzig in the semi-finals saw Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side earn their spot in the final, facing another German side in Frankfurt after their 3-1 aggregate win over West Ham United. A win over Frankfurt would make Rangers the first Scottish side to win a European competition since Aberdeen in 1983.
