Rangers Europa League odds: Latest betting previews as they play Feyenoord, Porto and Young Boys

Rangers will be happy to return to a familiar sight many of their fans have missed for nearly 10 years - back-to-back season of European football.

Manager Steven Gerrard has managed to match last season's best by reaching the Europa League group stage and will want to see his side show their worth against some European heavyweights.

They have not reached the group stage of a European competition since 2010 when they qualified for the Champions League group stage the season before they entered administration.

Gerrard will be wanting his side to challenge for a top two place but will face stiff competition from Feyenoord and Porto who are favourites to go through to the knockout rounds.

With trips to the Netherlands, Portugal and Switzerland to play BSC Young Boys, will the Gers be able to beat the odds and reach the knockout rounds of a European competition since 2008?
