Competition: Europa League

Market: Over 2.5 goals

Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport

Already booking their spot in the knockout stage of this year’s Europa League, Rangers will make the trip to Polish side Lech on Thursday night when signing off their Group D campaign.

Starting with the hosts, while Lech might have managed to pick up a routine 4-0 win against Podbeskidzie last time out, the Polish side have endured a lackluster run during their Europa League run. In their five Group D matchups in this year’s tournament, they have recorded just a single victory against four defeats, scoring six and conceding 12 in return. Opening their final contest holding just a points tally of three, they open the midweek fixtures seven points adrift of second-place Benfica and also holding the joint-worst defensive record in the division. As for their recent run of results, Lech have managed to win just a pair of their last six matchups across all formats and were hit with a 4-0 defeat in their last Europa League contest against Benfica. It should also be noted, seven of Lech’s last eight matchups across all competitions finished with over 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a hugely impressive run of form both domestically and in Europe, the mood in Rangers’ camp should be at a red-hot high. Already managing to climb their way to the top of the Premiership table, the Scottish outfit have also managed to secure their route out of Group D with plenty of time to spare. In their five qualifying matchups in this year’s tournament, the Blues have recorded three wins against a pair of draws, scoring 11 and conceding seven in return. Opening up their final round of fixtures sat at the top of Group D, Rangers currently find themselves enjoying a three-match winning run across all formats. More impressive, also unbeaten in their last 24 matchups on the bounce and have a reputation for their high-scoring outcomes. With each of the Blues’ last seven straight contests seeing over 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome on Thursday.
