Meanwhile, Rangers had also been in decent form, having beaten Greenock Morton 2-1 and Livingston 4-0 on either side of a 1-1 draw with Servette. Since the first leg with PSV, Michael Beale’s side managed to earn themselves a vital 2-0 win away at Ross County thanks to goals by Kemar Roofe and James Tavernier.
In Serie B, recently relegated Sampdoria hosts Venezia at Luigi Ferraris Stadium.
Andrea Pirlo’s men have won two of their first three games under his management, beating Sudtirol 7-6 on penalties after a 1-1 draw, before emerging victorious over Ternana by a 2-1 scoreline. Last time out, Sampdoria suffered a shock 2-0 home defeat to Pisa.
