Former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou returns to Glasgow with an injury-hit Spurs side

Rangers host Tottenham in the Europa League tonight as former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou returns to Glasgow.

The so-called ‘Battle of Britain' will be the latest instalment in a long history of clashes between English and Scottish sides in European competition, with this fixture arguably taking place at the worst possible time for the visitors.

Spurs are without a win in four games across all competitions, including Europa League outings against Galatasaray and Roma, have lost their last two in a row and will be without several key players due to injury.

As for resurgent Rangers, they're now unbeaten in eight and have recorded some impressive results along the way - most notably a 4-1 win over Nice away from home on matchday five last month.

Both sides are locked on 10 points ahead of kick-off and a win for either here will see them take a massive step towards sealing a place in the last 16.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Rangers vs Tottenham is scheduled for a 8pm GMT kick-off time tonight on Thursday December 12, 2024.

The match will take place at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow.

Rangers vs Tottenham prediction

The form guide points to a home win. Rangers are on a good run at the moment, while Spurs are not.

However, it wouldn't be a surprise if the north London outfit turned up for the big occasion, just like they have done against both Manchester clubs so far this season.

By no means is it a must-win game for Tottenham but there's a good chance they stop the rot.

Tottenham to win, 3-1.
