How to watch Malmo vs Rangers Europa League match on TV: channel, live stream and team news

Scottish heavyweights Rangers begin their European campaign with a trip to take on Swedish champions Malmo as they look to improve on what has so far been a disappointing start to the new season.

Philippe Clement’s men have had to settle for a spot in the Europa League this term after losing their Champions League qualifier against Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kyiv. The Light Blues also find themselves third in the Scottish Premiership and already five points behind league leaders Celtic after a devastating 3-0 loss in the first Old Firm clash of the season.

Malmo boast a record of just one defeat in eight matches against Scottish teams - in a run stretching back to 2011. But Rangers will be keen to buck that trend in Sweden and treat their fans to another famous European night after victories over the likes of Real Betis, Sparta Prague and PSV Eindhoven in recent years.
