For the 4th matchday of the 1st group of the Champions League, Rangers welcome Liverpool at the Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow. The group is completed by Ajax and Napoli, the top two in the ranking qualify for the next phase of the competition, the third continues in the Europa League.
Under the circumstances Rangers were easily beaten 2-0 by Liverpool last week at Anfield. They can't complain about the result as offensively they couldn't threaten at any time and conceding a goal in each half they were justly beaten and could have lost by a bigger score if not for a good night from their goalkeeper.
So Rangers remains without a point in the group and basically he has lost all hope for the top two while even the 3rd place is quite difficult.
On Saturday, for the championship, they easily beat St. Mirren 4-0 scoring 2 goals in each half and continues to remain at -2 from the first Celtic.
Liverpool did their duty last game against Rangers winning 2-0 and remained in the qualification zone. She was lucky to score in her first phase of the match (7') and this helped her manage the match properly and with another goal in the replay she got an easy victory.
This was Liverpool's 2nd win in the group, reached 6 points against 3 of the third Ajax and shows for the time being that he has the first reason for the qualification to the next phase.
On Sunday however for the Premier League returned to problematic performances knowing the 3-2 defeat in London by Arsenal. Now having only 10 points in 8 matches, he sees the difference from the first Arsenal has reached 14 points while on Sunday he welcomes Manchester City.
Rangers are arguably the weakest team in the group and rightfully so in last place, but they will certainly be fighting tonight and for prestige reasons for their first points. Liverpool, for its part, is unrecognizable compared to last year, it sees the title in England flying very early but it would like to be in the CL. to reach as far as possible. I think we will see a match with a fast pace and many phases.
Tip: Rangers – Liverpool GG with odds of 1.80
