RANGERS must park yet more European heroics to one side on Saturday for the visit of St Johnstone at Ibrox.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side made history by fighting back from a two goal deficit to overcome a 2-0 first leg defeat for the first time in six attempts on Tuesday against Union Saint-Gilloise.
They now face PSV Eindhoven with the first leg at home on Tuesday for a place in the Champions League. And that could have a real imoact on the manager's team selection.
Despite winning 3-0, Rangers are still nowhere near their best. Had they not been gifted a penalty because of a freak handball on the stroke of half time then it would have been a real struggle.
They dominated possession, but it appears to be a problem for them to break down teams who park the bus, which is exactly what the Saints will do.
St Johnstone boss Callum Davidson eased some of the pressure on him with a fine 2-1 win at Motherwell last week.
This is a free hit for the Perth men at Irox and they will be fully aware it could be a long afternoon.
How the bookies view it
Rangers are obviously heavy, odds-on favourites at 1/5 with SBK and will be many punters' bedrock on their coupons. St Johnstone can be bacled at 20/1 with Coral and the draw is 6/1 with McBookie.com.
Recent head to heads
Rangers won all three games between the clubs last season including this bloodless 2-0 win at Ibrox in December as can be seen below.
Players to watch
Antonio Colak made a huge impression with the goal that levelled the tie against the Belgians on Tuesday. The Croatian striker has started well since his move and is 20/21 to score anytime with bet365.
Stevie May grabbed St Johnstone's injury time winner at Fir Park last week and the former Scotland international is 6/1 ti score atIbrox with McBookie.com
Anything else catch the eye?
Rangers would settle for any kind of win here with one eye being on their huge Champions League showdown next week. St Johnstone are a side who, while they don't score too many goals, are well organised at the back and should be able to prevent a hammering.
McBookie.com's 11/8 with St Johnstone getting two goal start on the handicaps looks a solid shout.
It's almost certain Rangers will completely dominate possession no matter how the game is going and should win the corner count with plenty to spare, especially with Ryan Kent back in the team.
They won three inside the opening seven minutes on Tuesday. Bet365's price of 10/11 with Rangers -5 on the corners handicaps should be backed.
