Rangers will be looking to retain their top 8 spot against Tottenham. Prediction, 12.12.24
The Spurs and coach Ange Postecoglu are under increasing pressure
Rangers will be satisfied with their performance in the Europa League so far, as they are in a top 8 position in the table after five matchdays. They have collected 10 points so far and are just 3 points behind league leaders Lazio Roma. They recently went 3 games unbeaten in a row again, scoring a strong 9 goals in the process. However, they now face one of the toughest opponents of this preliminary round in Tottenham. Spurs also have 10 points, but are in 9th place and therefore outside the play-off places due to their poorer goal difference. After 3 wins at the start, they have only picked up one point from their last two games. The last away game even resulted in a 3:2 defeat against Galatasaray.

Glasgow Rangers play big in their competition
In 2022, Glasgow Rangers sensationally reached the Europa League final, but were defeated by Eintracht Frankfurt. Last season, they always reached the round of 16. This year, they are also among the front runners and are in 8th place in the new system after 5 match days and would therefore qualify directly for the knockout phase. The Rangers have collected 10 points so far and are therefore 3 points behind league leaders Lazio Roma. At the same time, they must not allow themselves a defeat, otherwise they could slip down to 20th place. However, form is clearly in the Scots' favor, as they have collected a strong 7 points from their last 3 games. This included a 4-0 home win against Steaua Bucharest and a 1-4 away success against Nice. In between, they drew 1-1 at Olympiakos and their goal difference after the 5 games is 12:6. Only two teams in the Europa League have been more successful offensively than the hosts. They have also managed to score at least one goal in every game so far. With Tottenham and Manchester United, however, they have a real challenge ahead of them in the next two matchdays.

The Premiership will be difficult once again
Rangers have not been able to secure the championship in Scotland since 2021. This will be an almost impossible task again this year, because after 15 matchdays they are already 11 points behind rivals Celtic Glasgow. Rangers are not playing a bad season and have a record of 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. They also have a strong goal difference of 27:9 goals. They have recently won 3 games in a row and have not conceded a single goal. Overall, they have been unbeaten for 5 games. Their last defeat came against Aberdeen FC on October 30. They have 7 wins and a draw at home, making them the strongest team in the league at home.
Glasgow Rangers
System: 4-2-3-1.
Coach Ange Postecoglu is under increasing pressure at Spurs
Tottenham have clearly squandered what was actually a very good start to the season in recent weeks and the pressure on manager Ange Postecoglu is increasing. Spurs have failed to win their last four competitive matches and have only managed one win from their last seven games. This was a 0:4 away at Manchester City. While they have long since lost touch in the Premier League, they are still in 9th place in the Europa League and are only 3 points off the top of the table, although the form curve is clearly pointing downwards here too. After 3 wins at the start, they have failed to win their last 2 games. While they were beaten 3-2 away to Galatasaray Istanbul, they drew 2-2 in their last home game. Of their total of just 6 goals conceded, they have conceded 5 in the last two matchdays. Tottenham scored at least one goal in every Europa League game. However, they also conceded 4 goals in 2 away games.

Only in the second half of the Premier League table
Tottenham are only in 11th place in the Premier League after 15 matchdays and are already 7 points off the Champions League places following their 4-3 home defeat to Chelsea last weekend. They have failed to win their last 3 league games and recently suffered 2 defeats in a row. Their record is now negative with 6 wins and 7 defeats. They are still absolutely top in offense, as with 31 goals they have the best offense in the Premier League behind Chelsea FC. 4 of their 7 defeats this season have been away from home. They have only managed 2 away wins, most recently against Manchester City with 0:4.
Tottenham Hotspur
System: 4-3-3.

There could be a few goals - our forecast
The Rangers have a strong home record and are difficult to beat there. We would therefore tend to favor a double chance 1/X bet. However, this is a bit risky as a betting tip. However, both teams have impressed with their offense in the Europa League. We are therefore almost certain that more than 2.5 goals will be scored. This bet is also suitable for a combination betting slip.
