Tannochsidebear 2,420 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Thats quite an amazing stat @ian1964, I wonder if it will still be the case when the first leg comes around, I doubt it somehow but even at this stage of the season for none of last seasons champions (or even top 2/3/4) to be top of their league this year is probably unprecedented. The Europa draw itself is brutal, but thankfully we avoided the worst of it. If we had drawn Antwerp in the group stages we would be saying fine, no problem, who else have we got! So from that perspective and seeing some of the other ties, I am delighted with what we have got and it should see us progress comfortably to the last 16 again and March European football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker 887 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 For what it's worth (probably not much) Antwerp are the lowest ranked team still in the competition (125th). https://www.footballseeding.com/uefa/club-ranking/2020-21/ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 7,052 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 You can get a decent 9/1 for Rangers to reach semifinal or 20/1 to be runners up and a whopping 40/1 to lift the trophy. Or you could settle for 7/2 to go I to the next round. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CammyF 8,123 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Decent enough draw and if our form remains as it is, or dare I say improves, we should have sufficient to progress. However, February is a long way off (in footballing terms) and plenty just as, or more important games to play / focus on prior to these games. Starting on Wednesday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbr 1,256 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 If we can keep all our players after January , and if we play to the same standard in Europe that we have these last 2-3 seasons , we will be fine , our biggest problem will be over confidence , something I don’t see in this team or this management team this year . 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I’ll be quite happy if we focus entirely on domestic competition after New Year. Anything but what happened a year ago. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
