Rangers v Plzen Champions League Betting Preview & Tips

Kick‑Off: Tonight (Tuesday 6 August), 19:45 BST
Venue: Ibrox Stadium, Glasgow
Competition: UEFA Champions League Third Qualifying Round
Odds: 3.43/1 with PaddyPower/Betfair

Rangers return to Ibrox tonight for the first leg of their Champions League qualifier against Viktoria Plzen. After a frustrating 1–1 draw with Motherwell on Saturday, Russell Martin’s side will be eager to respond with a stronger performance on the European stage.

They come into this tie unbeaten in eight games, having seen off Panathinaikos in the previous round with a confident display in Glasgow. Viktoria Plzen arrive having edged past Servette in the second round, but they’ve lost key man Pavel Šulc and look slightly short of creativity without him.

With home advantage, sharper match fitness and more depth in the squad, this feels like a good opportunity for Rangers to take control of the tie.

🔍 Rangers v Plzen Bet Builder Reasoning

Rangers to Win
Rangers have a strong recent record in European qualifiers at Ibrox, including a 2–0 win over Panathinaikos just two weeks ago. They’re unbeaten in eight, and Martin will demand a reaction after calling out his squad’s mentality at the weekend. Plzen are well-drilled but arrive without their best player and haven’t played since 27 July.

Over 1.5 Goals
This has landed in seven of Rangers’ last eight competitive matches and in 14 of Plzen’s last 16. With attacking options like Dessers, Dowell and Gassama for the hosts, and Vydra and Durosinmi expected to lead the line for Plzen, there’s enough firepower on both sides to expect goals. A more open first leg also suits this line.

Rangers – Most Corners
Rangers play with width, push their full-backs high and rack up corners at Ibrox. They had more corners than Panathinaikos in both legs last round, and regularly top the corner count in European games. Expect them to control territory and set-piece numbers again here.

📊 Key Betting Stats
  • Rangers are unbeaten in their last 8 matches

  • Rangers have won 5 of their last 6 European home qualifiers

  • Over 1.5 goals has landed in 14 of Plzen’s last 16 matches

  • Plzen have conceded in 8 of their last 10 away games

  • Rangers had more corners than their opponent in 7 of their last 9 home European games

🏁 Our Tipman Prediction

Rangers should dominate the ball and the tempo at Ibrox. They’re fitter, sharper and will be desperate to lay down a marker after a flat league opener. Plzen carry a threat going forward but lack spark in midfield without Šulc. With goals expected and Rangers likely to spend more time in the final third, the corner count should tilt their way.
