UEFA have confirmed the match officials for the Europa League quarter-final second leg between Athletic Bilbao and Rangers.
Rangers travel to Spain for the fixture on Thursday evening with the contest finely poised at 0-0 from the first leg in Glasgow last week.
Victory in the second leg would see Rangers advance to the semi-final stage of the tournament just three years on from their run to the final.
The final this season will be played at San Mames stadium, the home of Athletic Bilbao.
Ahead of the match on Thursday, UEFA have appointed Irfan Peljto as the referee. The experienced referee, 40, is from Bosnia and Herzegovina and will be assisted by fellow countrymen.
Senad Ibrisimbegovic and Davor Beljo will run the line as his assistants with Milos Gigovic the fourth official on Thursday evening.
Peljto has refereed a Rangers match once before, back in 2022. He was in charge for the 2-0 loss to Union Saint-Gilloise in Champions League qualifying. He dished out four bookings that night.
VAR duties will fall upon a Dutch duo on Thursday night with Pol van Boekel to lead operations in the booth with assistance from Clay Ruperti.
