THE PREDICTION
It was always expected to be a difficult challenge for Steven Gerrard to replicate Rangers’ impressive season last year. A title and run to the last 16 in the UEFA Europa League has already been followed by Rangers losing in the league and being knocked out of their first qualification round in the UEFA Champions League by Malmo. They come up against Peter Bosz’ Lyon side that is very attacking with two former Celtic players on the scoresheet in their 3-1 win over Strasbourg at the weekend. Those goal scorers being Jason Denayer and Moussa Dembele. Rangers have proven to be a stubborn force at Ibrox under Gerrard but their last two matches at home in Europe have been defeats to Slavia Prague and the aforementioned Malmo so Lyon should fancy their chances here.
