Philippe Clement has made three changes to his starting eleven as Rangers prepare to take on Lyon on matchday two of the UEFA Europa League league phase at Ibrox tonight.
Following Sunday’s 1-0 home victory over Hibs in the Scottish Premiership, Mohamed Diomande, Nedim Bajrami and Cyriel Dessers return to the line-up to face Pierre Sage’s Ligue 1 side with Nico Raskin, Ross McCausland and Hamza Igamane named on the bench for this evening’s big match.
The Light Blues, of course, enjoyed an impressive 2-0 victory over Malmo on matchday one of the competition on September 26, with Nedim Bajrami and Ross McCausland getting the goals.
Lyon, however, recorded the same result on the same night on the European stage, with Rayan Cherki and Said Benrahma finding the net in a 2-0 home win over Olympiacos.
Jack Butland makes his twelfth appearance of the season tonight and in front of Rangers’ towering number one is back four consisting of James Tavernier, John Souttar, Robin Propper and Jefte.
A trio of Mohamed Diomande, Connor Barron and Tom Lawrence will feature in midfield with Nedim Bajrami, Vaclav Cerny and Cyriel Dessers in attack.
On the bench this evening are, Liam Kelly, Kieran Dowell, Dujon Sterling, Neraysho Kasanwirjo, Leon Balogun, Hamza Igamane, Leon King, Nico Raskin, Ross McCausland, Robbie Fraser, Cole McKinnon and Zak Lovelace.
RANGERS: Butland, Tavernier, Souttar, Propper, Jefte, Diomande, Barron, Cerny, Lawrence, Bajrami, Dessers.
