Frankfurt vs Rangers, 8pm GMT

The Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in Seville plays host to the highly-anticipated Europa League final on Wednesday night, as Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers face off for a shot at continental glory.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side got the better of RB Leipzig in their semi-final to book their spot in a historic showpiece event, while their German counterparts dashed the West Ham United dream.

Rangers head into the clash having got the better of Hearts 3-1 in their Scottish Premiership battle at the weekend, while Frankfurt’s final Bundesliga game of the season saw them draw 2-2 with Mainz.

Our Picks:

Rangers Win @21/10

Over 2.5 Goals @10/11

2+ shots on target each team in each half in 90 mins @7/1

 

Rangers

The dream of back-to-back Scottish Premiership titles did not materialise for Van Bronckhorst’s side, but Hearts also await them in the final of the Scottish Cup next weekend, and their dress rehearsal for that showpiece event certainly went according to the script as far as the Gers faithful are concerned.

Frankfurt

Marching to glory in this season’s tournament – and sealing a spot in the Champions League in the process – would certainly make up for the disappointment of an 11th-placed finish in the Bundesliga, and their domestic season ended with a 2-2 draw versus Mainz 05 at the weekend.

Head To Head

Wednesday’s final will not be the first meeting between Frankfurt and Rangers in European competition, with the two sides locking horns in the semi-finals of the 1959-60 European Cup.

Rangers managed to head into half time at the Deutsche Bank Park at 1-1 in the first leg, but Frankfurt tore them apart in the second to claim a 6-1 advantage before visiting Ibrox.

In another spectacular watch for the neutrals, Frankfurt won 6-3 to advance to the final courtesy of a 12-4 aggregate success, but the German side were soon carved open 7-3 by Real Madrid in the final.

 

Eintracht Frankfurt Predicted starting 11:
Trapp; Toure, Ndicka, Tuta; Knauff, Sow, Rode, Kostic; Kamada, Hauge; Borre

Rangers Predicted starting 11:
McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Bassey, Barisic; Kamara, Lundstram, Jack; Kent, Aribo, Wright
