Club Brugge vs Rangers

Club Brugge will be aiming to build on a 3-1 advantage from the first meeting as they host Rangers in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League playoffs.

The Belgians are looking sharp at the moment and will be feeling confident heading into this clash. They should have the upper hand over the visitors, who continue to struggle at the start of the season.

Club Brugge News

Club Brugge were full value for the win in the first leg as they dominated throughout the encounter. They took a three-goal lead into the break thanks to efforts from Romeo Vermant, Jorne Spileers and Brandon Mechele, and held on for the win.

It has been a smooth start to the season for Club Brugge, who have won six of their last seven matches across all competitions. Nicky Hayen's team also impress at home and have won their last three matches in front of their fans.

As seen in the first leg, goals are not a problem for Club Brugge and they have scored in their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in six of the last nine fixtures on this run, with all six fixtures producing over 2.5 goals.

Rangers News

Rangers failed to make their home leg of the tie count as they struggled to match the quality of Club Brugge. Having gone three goals down at the break, they pulled one back through Danilo Pereira, but never looked like completing a comeback.

Things have been pretty rough for Rangers at the start of the season, and they head into this clash winless in four of their last five matches. They are also winless in their last eight away matches across all competitions and were held to a 1-1 draw at St Mirren in a Scottish Premiership fixture last weekend.

Rangers often show some attacking quality and have scored in their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, Russell Martin’s team have failed to keep a clean sheet eight times in this run, while three of the last four fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Club Brugge and Rangers have picked up one win each and played out two draws from their four previous matches. The most recent meeting was last week's first leg, which ended 3-1 in favour of Club Brugge.

Verdict

Club Brugge v Rangers

The first leg already showed Club Brugge's superiority over Rangers, who seem out of sorts this season. The Belgians have won six of their last seven matches and should come out on top once again in this fixture.

Both teams have scored in the last two matches between Club Brugge and Rangers, with the two fixtures producing over 2.5 goals. Wednesday's clash is likely to serve up a similar outcome.
