SK Brann vs Rangers Predictions

• Rangers have won just one of their last 11 matches
• The Gers have been defeated in their last five European outings
• Brann have won three of their last four European games

Problems continue to mount for Gers

Rangers have had a terrible start to the Scottish Premiership season, winning just one of their opening eight games, and there has been no respite in European competition as they were outclassed by Club Brugge 9-1 on aggregate in the Champions League and they have already lost to Genk and Sturm Graz in the Europa League.

A late goal from James Tavernier was required to earn a 2-2 home draw with Dundee United on Saturday and the club seems in limbo following Russell Martin’s sacking with Steven Smith in temporary charge.

One win in 11 games tells its own story and it is tough to see them arresting that slump when they head to Norway to face Brann on Thursday.

Brann are solid on their own patch

While Rangers have been struggling, there have been encouraging signs for the Norwegians in the Europa League and they have already beaten Utrecht and put up a strong show before being beaten by a late Olivier Giroud goal in Lille.

They have been beaten just once in the league in 12 home matches this season and won their last five on their own patch, so a victory for the hosts looks the way to go here, with a 2-1 Brann success of potential interest to correct-score punters.
