RANGERS have their date with destiny in Seville tonight as they bid to topple Eintracht Frankfurt and savour Europa League glory.
The Ibrox men are outsiders for the final, with Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side 6/5 at McBookie to lift the trophy and 21/10 for a win inside 90 minutes.
Eintracht are just 4/6 with most firms to come out on top but the price increases to 7/5 at SBK if you back them to do the business without extra-time or penalties.
The bookies might live to regret those prices as I’m sure thousands of Gers will back their heroes to finish off a memorable Euro campaign.
And it does feel like Rangers are destined to triumph 50 years after their last European success and on the club’s 150th anniversary.
Frankfurt sit below Dortmund and Leipzig in the Bundesliga table and van Bronckhorst’s side have already seen off those two giants on their run to the final.
But any side that has beaten Betis, Barcelona and West Ham deserves respect so it should be a tight game.
The half-time draw is always worth a punt in a final and that pays 6/5 at Bet365 while a one-goal winning margin for either side is 13/10 at McBookie.
John Lundstram should be in the thick of it, either as a third centre back or in the heart of midfield. That makes him a good candidate for a card and that pays a tempting 4/1 at Unibet.
For a bonkers bet, SkyBet are offering 16/1 on Connor Goldson scoring with a header and that might be worth a tentative punt in a game where set-pieces could be crucial.
