We said: Rangers 2-2 Lyon

Both teams enter Thursday's contest in buoyant mood and will back themselves to come away with a positive result. Rangers have looked solid at the back in recent weeks, but they may have their work cut out in keeping Lyon quiet considering that the French side have scored two or more goals in four of their last five matches. A closely-fought contest with plenty of goalmouth action could be on the cards here, and with that in mind, we can see the spoils being shared in an entertaining score draw. Read more.
