Scottish Championship star Ryan McGowan feels that Tottenham Hotspur will not be looking forward to coming to Ibrox to face Rangers later this week.

Spurs have failed to win any of their last four matches and they have now suffered back to back defeats in the Premier League.

Up next they are set to face Scottish giants Rangers on Thursday night in the Europa League and after a difficult start to the campaign, the Gers have stabilised recently.

Philippe Clement’s side have scored nine goals in their last two matches and McGowan feels Spurs will not look forward to going to Ibrox as he feels Rangers have been very efficient in Europe this season.

“I think they [Rangers] will be looking at Tottenham, thinking this is a good opportunity or a good time to play them because they have not been getting the results they would have probably wanted”, McGowan said on the Scottish Football Podcast.

“And they will not be looking forward to coming to Ibrox with how well Rangers are doing in Europe especially, which means it is leading into a cracking game.

“Rangers are in a good vein of form, they are feeling confident.”

McGowan insisted Ange Postecoglou will feel the heat coming at Ibrox but he thinks Spurs are well aware of how good they can be if they play to their strengths.

“Ange and Spurs will be a little bit feeling the heat, a tiny bit, but they also know if they play to their capabilities they should be winning the game.”

The last time Spurs faced Rangers was two years ago in a friendly match where the north London side won the match by a 2-1 margin.
