Rangers have had mixed fortunes against Red Star Belgrade in their meetings since they first clashed almost 60 years ago.
But fans hoping the draw against the Serbian side is a lucky omen will point to the fact that the season they last went head to head the Light Blues went all the way to the UEFA Cup final.
To do that, they had to survive the intimidating Marakana Stadium and will have to do the same again in the return leg of their last 16 tie on March 17.
