Jablonec striker Jan Chramosta has revealed they have studied Rangers to discover their weaknesses ahead of their Ibrox showdown this week.

Rangers face the Czech side in the Europa Conference League on Thursday after they claimed their first win of the season in the Premier Sports Cup against holders St Mirren at the weekend.

And veteran Jablonec star Chramosta is convinced they can find flaws in Rangers' game ahead of the first leg.

The 35-year-old former Czech international said: "We have spent our time since winning last week in Latvia studying Rangers and we had a break this weekend after we postponed our game.

"We want to find some weaknesses in their game.

"It is clear that we are facing an incredibly difficult opponent, but we are excited about the challenge and we are looking forward to playing in such an atmosphere.

"Jagiellonia Bialystok proved Rangers can be beaten over two legs.

"We have got through two stages in Europe and we want to get to the group stages now."

And Jablonec boss Lubos Kozel is aiming to make history in Europe.

He explained: "I was told that this is the first time Jablonec have ever won two qualifying ties in a row, so we are delighted with that.

"But I am not satisfied yet and we want to get through now to the main stage of the competition.

"Rangers are a very difficult team to beat, but having the second leg at home could be to our advantage."
