How to watch Olympiacos vs Rangers: TV channel, live stream, match officials + team news for Europa League tie

Rangers travel to Greece to take on last year’s Conference League winners Olympiacos in their fourth Europa League outing this week with Philippe Clement’s side aiming to clinch a third victory as part of the revamped league phase.

The Ibrox side kickstarted their campaign with a 2-0 win over Malmo in Sweden but were brought crashing back down to earth by Lyon back on home soil on matchday two. Last time out, the Gers recorded their second win in emphatic style against Romanian champions FCSB to move them up to 11th in the table.

The Greek Super League outfit remain unbeaten at home this season and will provide another stern test, having set the same record as their Govan counterparts in the competition so far - beating Malmo and Braga while also losing to Lyon.

With both teams sitting just outside the automatic qualifying spots and coming into the match in good form after recording weekend victories, there is plenty at stake in Athens on Thursday evening. Olympiacos defeats Panserraikos 2-1 on league business, while the Gers secured their place in the Premier Sports Cup final after coming from behind to beat Motherwell by the same scoreline.
