RANGERS might need to thank the likes of Livi, Killie and Hamilton if they avoid defeat in Bern on Thursday.
The Ibrox club have been warned about Young Boys’ dodgy plastic pitch but Scottish clubs are well used to them.
In fact just last week Stevie Gerrard’s men won 1-0 at Livingston so I don’t think he’ll blame the surface if they lose.
Young Boys are a decent outfit who finished miles ahead of Basel to win the Swiss league but recent form is patchy and while they are warm favourites at 19-20 with I can see Gers at least drawing.
Rangers are 3-1 with McBookie to pick up the points and evens not to lose.
Gerrard’s Euro record is excellent, unbeaten in nine this season, and last year they netted five in three road games in the group stage.
Both teams to score looks the best bet at 4-6 with McBookie while over 2.5 goals pays 4-5 at bet365.
Alfredo Morelos took his season’s tally to 13 in the 5-0 rout of Aberdeen and is 2-1 at Unibet to score and 6-1 to break the deadlock.
Celtic know all there is to know about Cluj after losing 4-3 at home to crash out of the Champions League.
That was a crazy game full of defensive blunders and Neil Lennon’s men should have learned their lesson.
The Hoops are a little skinny at 3-5 to gain revenge while both to score seems big at 13-10 with McBookie as it came up in both legs in August. James Forrest is a big-game scorer and is 6-1 at bet365 to net first.
I’ll add thoughts on some of the other games in the morning.
