Prematch Analysis: Rangers vs Bursaspor

[Guest]

Rangers have 1 point from their first game away to Manchester United (0-0). Bursaspor have 0 points after being beaten 4-0 in Turkey by Valencia two weeks ago.

Against Manchester United at Old Trafford, Rangers played with 5 men at the back and comfortably held Manchester United to a non-scoring draw. It is very unlikely that we will see a repeat of those tactics at Ibrox on Wednesday versus Bursaspor. That is not to say that we will undervalue the Turkish champions, but that we will need to be more attack minded to pick up the three points at stake this week if we want to really compete in this section.

If we can win at Ibrox we will be in a very good position in the table as Valencia and Manchester United will fight out a very hard game in Spain. We need three points at home to be credible challengers in this group and that is certainly attainable.
