Rangers Europa League fixtures revealed as Ibrox side handed Lyon home tie to start

Rangers have discovered their Europa League fixtures for the 2021/22 season.

The Ibrox side are in the group stage for the fourth season in a row and take on Lyon, Sparta Prague and Brondby in Group A of the tournament.

And they'll kick things off with a home tie against Lyon - meaning they have a difficult final game if it goes down to the wire as they travel to France to take on their old foes.

Moussa Dembele will be back in Glasgow for this one with the former Celtic player a key man for Lyon, as is fellow former Hoops star Jason Denayer.

That game is soon after the international break with Rangers hosting Lyon at Ibrox on September 16 with an 8pm kick-off time.

Rangers then travel to Prague for the second match when they take on Sparta in a game that has a kick-off time of 5.45pm.

It's then a double header with Brondby - where Rangers legend Brian Laudrup started his career - on October 21 and November 4, with the home leg the first of those.

Steven Gerrard's men will then face Sparta Prague on November 25 at Ibrox before rounding off the group stage with a trip to France to face Lyon.

October 21 - Rangers v Brondby - 8pm
