Rangers head to the Czech Republic with a commanding 3-0 first-leg advantage, looking to finish the job against Viktoria Plzen and secure a place in the Champions League playoffs.

Russell Martin’s side have found European competition far more forgiving than the Scottish Premiership so far, with summer arrival Oliver Antman making an immediate impact on debut and Djeidi Gassama continuing his ontinental form.

Max Aarons is fit to return, though Thelo Aasgaard and Hamza Igamane remain sidelined, while 17-year-old loanee Mikey Moore is awaiting clearance.

Plzen, twice frustrated in league play since the first leg, face the near-impossible task of overturning a three-goal deficit. Midfield anchor Adrian Zeljkovic returns from suspension, but the departure of playmaker Pavel Sulc to Lyon leaves 17-year-old Jiri Panos with the creative burden.

A team with five previous Champions League group-stage appearances, Plzen are now staring at a likely drop into the Europa League unless they can conjure a comeback of historic proportions.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the weekly schedule.
