Rangers vs Braga prediction and betting tips on November 27, 2025

Rangers host Braga at Ibrox Stadium on 27 November in the UEL league phase. Since Danny Röhl became the new head coach of the Gers in October, the team started to gain momentum domestically. However, in Europe, they're stuck at the bottom of the standings and badly need a spark. Braga, on the other hand, are far more settled, sitting fifth overall and carrying real danger. MightyTips analysts are digging into this matchup to provide you with a detailed analysis and the best picks.

Braga enter as favourites, priced at 2.25 to win and backed by stronger European form, while Rangers' 3.10 line reflects their struggle in this season's league phase.

Rangers come into this Europa League fixture with plenty happening both on and off the pitch. Chief executive Patrick Stewart and sporting director Kevin Thelwell were dismissed this week because of poor results. Rangers opened the league campaign with just one win in their first eight matches and suffered seven consecutive European defeats. Röhl has managed to steady things domestically, losing only twice inside the Scottish Premiership, since taking charge. However, the European picture is much worse. The team have four straight defeats in the league phase, just one goal scored, and a worrying minus 7 goal difference.

In recent matchups, Rangers narrowly won 2-1 against Livingston and put on a decent performance against Dundee to win 3-0. However, maintaining that level in Europe has been a different challenge entirely. Their lack of cutting edge and strategic lapses in midfield hurt them under continental pressure. Squad-wise, Kieran Dowell, Rabbi Matondo and Dujon Sterling have all been out with long-term injuries, so there are no fresh concerns for Röhl this time out.

Braga head to Glasgow looking full of confidence. They've been one of the in-form teams in this season's Europa League, sitting comfortably inside the league-phase top six. Carlos Vicens' team are scoring freely, hitting 15 goals in their last five games across all competitions. Their only European setback came in a wild 4-3 home loss to Genk, where they showed occasional defensive lapses. Since then, they've responded well, beating Moreirense 2-1 and Nacional 4-2 in the domestic league.

Vicens has Braga playing bright, attacking football. They move the ball quickly, use the width well, and constantly fill the final third with runners. Jonatas Noro is out with an achilles injury, while the rest of the squad remains intact for this match. Ricardo Horta is still the main figure up front, scoring three times in his last five games, while Rodrigo Zalazar and Fran Navarro give the team plenty of creativity and smart movement around him. The team also won their sole Europa League away game against Celtic, which only adds to their confidence heading into Ibrox.

This feels like another tough European night for Rangers. Röhl's side have taken small steps forward domestically, but they still can't do much in Europe. Braga arrive in far better shape and are equipped well to control the game. They've already shown they can handle tough away atmospheres in Glasgow, so playing at Ibrox won't put much pressure on them. MightyTips experts predict Braga to win at 2.25.

Looking at other markets, both teams to score - no at 2.00 looks strong, as Rangers have scored only once in Europe and Braga's organised back line rarely gives opponents clear chances.

Under 4.5 cards at 1.83 also offers value, with both sides averaging around 1.25 yellow cards per Europa League match and neither team typically engaging in overly physical, stop-start football.
