Rangers vs Jablonec Preview

Scottish Premiership outfit Rangers host Czech First League club Jablonec in the first leg of their Europa Conference League play-off tie at Ibrox Stadium, with kick-off set for 14:45 on Thursday 20 August.

Derek McInnes has won just one of his first five games as Rangers boss. They have started the Premiership season with a 1-1 away draw against Dundee United and a 2-1 home defeat to Hibernian. Rangers were also knocked out of the Europa League after losing 3-2 on aggregate to Polish Ekstraklasa side Jagiellonia Bialystok, before recording a 5-1 Scottish Cup victory over St. Mirren on Sunday.

Jablonec, who have made a perfect start to the First League season with three straight wins, were also victorious in their previous game. This was the second leg of their Conference League qualifying tie, with Jablonec recording a 2-1 away win over Latvian Higher League club RFS at LNK Sporta Parks to progress 4-1 on aggregate. Lubos Kozel's side had 50% possession and managed two shots on target, with Richard Sedlacek and Sebastian Nebyla on the scoresheet.
