Rangers vs Athletic Bilbao injury news: 6 out as Barry Ferguson forced into changes for big Europa League clash at Ibrox

Here is the latest team news ahead of Rangers v Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League quarter final at Ibrox on Thursday.

Rangers will turn their attention back to the Europa League this week as they welcome Athletic Bilbao to Ibrox in the Europa League quarter-final first leg (kick off: 8pm).

Barry Ferguson’s side suffered defeat for the fifth home game in succession for the first time in history on Saturday, with Hibs running out comfortable and deserved 2-0 winners in Govan. However, the Europa League has provided some unexpected solace solace for the Glasgow giants this year, and the interim boss will hope he can make Rangers supporters dream once more.

Their La Liga opponents arrive as one of the favourites to win the competition though, and enter the tie with one of the best records in the competition, having won seven of their nine Europa League games this season. But will Rangers provide more Thursday night drama under the Ibrox lights, and take a first leg advantage?
