What channel is OGC Nice v Rangers on? TV, live stream and team news for Europa League clash

Philippe Clement’s side fell 11 points behind Old Firm rivals Celtic at the weekend when they could only muster a 1-1 draw against Dundee United at Ibrox. A Vaclac Cerny strike cancelled out Sam Dalby’s first-half opener just after the hour mark, but that was as good as it got for the Gers.

After just two wins in their last five league games, Rangers fans could be forgiven for looking forward to a break from their draining league spell. In contrast to their domestic form, Clement’s side have performed reasonably well in Europe and sit in ninth position in the Europa League table.

Impressive wins over both FCSB and Malmo, coupled with a draw at Olympiacos has put them in course for qualification to the knockout stages of the tournament. Meanwhile the opposite is true of their hosts OGC Nice though, who have yet to taste victory in the Europa League and sit in 31st position. They current occupy fifth place in Ligue 1, having lost just two of their opening 12 games.
