Rangers begin their quest to reach the Champions League group stage this week with Servette coming to Ibrox on Wednesday night.

After the disappointment of last weekend’s 1-0 defeat by Kilmarnock, manager Michael Beale is already under pressure to get his summer signings firing – and they need to be on form against the Swiss side.

With the return leg in Switzerland next week, the Gers will be looking to get themselves in front in the opening contest and take a big step towards the groups.

A rocking Ibrox will be a big boost for the Gers – but a repeat of Saturday’s display will quickly see the fans really put the pressure on.
