On Thursday, Rangers host AS Roma in the group stage of the UEFA Europa League 2025/26 at Ibrox. These two clubs have no prior competitive head-to-head record, so the stage is set for a first-encounter showdown. With both teams seeking to consolidate their positions in the group and considering their recent form, it is highly likely that this will be a contest of measured chances rather than a goal fest.
Rangers team overview
Following the sacking of Russell Martin, Rangers have shown some signs of improvement with two wins from their last three matches. However, the 55-time Scottish champions still have a long way to go before they can put the miserable start to their 2025/26 season behind them. Back-to-back league victories against Kilmarnock and Hibernian gave the team a renewed sense of belief, but an unfortunate 3-1 extra-time defeat away to Celtic in the Scottish Cup served as a reminder that there is still much work to be done for Danny Röhl’s men.
In the Europa League so far, Rangers’ statistical returns are far from encouraging - they average just 0.34 goals scored and 2.00 goals conceded per match in the competition. They currently sit bottom of the 36-team league table with zero points and the worst goal difference of -5. The gulf between their domestic and European performances suggests that Rangers are struggling to translate their league form onto the continental stage, at least for now.
Dujon Sterling, Rabbi Matondo, and Kieran Dowell remain sidelined with injuries and will not feature in this match.

Roma team overview
Roma enter the game in better shape than their Thursday opponents. In Serie A this season, their record stands at 10 matches, 7 wins, 0 draws, and 3 losses, averaging 2.10 points per game. Their most recent domestic outing ended in a 1-0 defeat to AC Milan, which halted a two-match winning streak. Despite that setback, Roma remain firmly in the race for the Scudetto, having accumulated 21 points and sitting just one point behind first-placed Napoli.
Their European form, however, has been less convincing, with back-to-back Europa League defeats to Lille and Viktoria Plzeň presenting a psychological challenge heading into Thursday’s fixture at Ibrox. Interestingly, their only Europa League victory so far came away from home on matchday one, when they defeated Nice 2-1. Domestically, they have also struggled slightly on their travels, managing just one win from five away matches.
Paulo Dybala and Edoardo Bove remain the only two absences for the visitors.

Prediction
Based on the available statistics and scenario, Roma are marginal favourites. Rangers’ European form is weak (low scoring, high goals conceded) while Roma’s numbers suggest improved consistency and defensive stability. Given Rangers’ home ground advantage but their recent defensive fragility, and Roma’s ability to score on the road, we expect BTTS to happen on Thursday.
Prediction: BTTS
Three reasons we expect BTTS
- Roma have scored in two of their first three Europa League fixtures (66% scoring rate).
- Rangers have scored in three consecutive matches across all competitions.
- BTTS occurred in 50% of Rangers’ last 10 home matches in all competitions.
