Rangers have discovered who they would face in a Europa League play-off - if they can get the better of Jagiellonia Bialystok.

After the draw, the two sides knew the winner would go on to face Northern Irish outfit Larne or Iberia Tbilisi at the next stage.

Rangers lost 2-1 to the Poles last Thursday, despite having opened the scoring early on through an own goal from Tuur Rommens' cross.

With the return leg at Ibrox this Thursday, the home side will be favourites to win on the night and will hope to do enough to progress to the play-off.

Should that happen, they will be away to Tbilisi on August 20 with the second leg to follow at Ibrox on August 27.

Should they lose out to Bilaystok, they will drop into the Conference League play-off and face Czech side Jablonec or Latvians RFS.
