We said: Ajax 2-1 Rangers

Considering their bright start to the new season and the advantage of playing in front of their own fans, Ajax will be regarded as the favourites for Wednesday's contest, although Rangers tend to thrive on the European stage and should not be underestimated. The Gers will be desperate to respond with a strong performance after last weekend's defeat, but we can see the hosts kick-starting their group-stage campaign with maximum points. Read more.
