What team are we expecting?

Same team as home leg, although he may swap Lundstram for Cifuentes.

 

Matondo may be kept on the bench to hit them later when they tire.

I wouldn't be against the Lundstram change as he has played well recently however after watching the whole PSV match back again i don't think Cifu played as bad as a lot of folk think he did so the same starting line-up would suit me.

I agree to an extent. Cifu wasn't that bad, but didn't really get into the game that much. I'm not concerned if he starts but I feel that Beale may swap him with Lundstram.

I'd expect a back 3/5 tomorrow, with Lundstram dropping into the hole. We need Matondo and Sima providing pace and width from the off although I feel Beale will save Matondo for later in the game. Danilo to start. Just a hunch, but I think Beale will give him a chance tomorrow tonight.

It’s going to be very tight I think probably decided by a defensive mistake by one of the teams.

Sima and Matondo to start plz.

[Bill 13,717]

I think we'll need at least a couple of different formations against PSV but I can see us starting with something like 

 

Butland

Tavernier Goldson Souttar Barisic

Jack

Cifu Raskin Cantwell Matondo

Sima

I take it there's no problem with us actually getting to Holland, with this flight disruption?

Congratulations. First ever on a Rangers board anywhere, I imagine..  
 

Have you heavily backed a PSV win? Actually it’s not the lunatic notion it would have been a couple of weeks ago. I think, though, I’d keep Matondo back until sixty minutes

Arrogant bastards aren't they; De Jong kicking the door, Veerman slaughtering us post match and all of the comments this week - class goes a long way in football.

 

Let's win it with the spawniest 20% possession possible Rangers please, for a laugh.
