Rangers head into their first European cup final since 2008 this week with Frankfurt standing between them and the Europa League trophy.
The Gers have performed valiantly all season on the continent. They took down Bundesliga giants Dortmund in the first knockout round of the competition before enjoying a run of aggregate victories over Red Star, Braga and RB Leipzig.
Giovani van Bronckhorst will hope his team can make it a trio of German scalps this week to record Rangers’ first ever major European trophy.

However, Frankfurt cannot be underestimated and will be determined to replicate the heroics of their 1980 UEFA Cup triumph.
Boss Oliver Glasner boasts a mixed record since taking over the club in July 2021. They sit 11th of 18 in the Bundesliga table, but are undefeated in 12 Europa League matches so far this season.

Our prediction: Frankfurt v Rangers
This is a tale of two sides who have suffered disappointing – to varying degrees – domestic campaigns but the winner here will wrap up the season with the greatest result in their history.
Rangers will be frustrated they couldn’t do more to halt Celtic’s return to the top of Scottish football, while Frankfurt will finish comfortably away from the European qualification places for next season.
Everything hinges on this game, for both teams.
Frankfurt appear to be the favourites given their consistency on the continent this season, but when it comes to plucking out a big result when they need it most, few can compete with Rangers’ big-game attitude.
Expect a tight contest with plenty of nerves mingled in the terraces to generate a chaotic atmosphere. Neither side will want to concede an inch, and that could take this one all the way to penalties.
Our prediction: Frankfurt 1-1 Rangers (11/2 at Bet365)
