Eintracht Frankfurt v Rangers Betting Preview
Eintracht Frankfurt haven’t had the best performance in this Bundesliga season as they finished the season in 11th place. Their domestic season ended with a 2-2 draw versus Mainz at the weekend, their eight consecutive match without a win. However they can qualify for next season's Champions League by winning this competition. The German clumb reached the Europa League final by beating West Ham United in the semis, winning both legs convincingly. Prior to that they knocked out the likes of Olympiakos, Real Betis and Barcelona. They are yet to lose a single time throughout this season's tournament.
Rangers head into the clash having got the better of Hearts 3-1 in their Scottish Premiership battle at the weekend. They remain 4 points adrift of leaders Celtic despite winning 4 and drawing 1 of their last 5 Scottish Premiership matches. As to their European campaign, Giovanni Van Bronckhorst's men lost the first leg of both their quarterfinal and semifinal series, both on the road and both by 1-0 results against Borussia Dortmund (6-4 on aggregate) and RB Leipzig (3-2 on aggregate). The Scottish outfit touched 150/1 to win the Europa League with the top betting sites in mid February but they are now just 90 minutes away from lifting Europe's second-most prestigious trophy for the first time.

Team News & Probable Line-Ups
Eintracht Frankfurt (3-4-2-1): Trapp; Toure, Ndicka, Tuta; Knauff, Sow, Rode, Kostic; Kamada, Hauge; Borre
Centre-back Martin Hinteregger will miss the match after he picked up an injury in the semi-final against West Ham while Evan Ndicka should be fit to feature despite being replaced in the game against Mainz due to a muscular issue. Oliver Glasner will also be without the services of Diant Ramaj, Jesper Lindstrom and Danny da Costa. In attack Rafael Borre will lead the line, supported by Daichi Kamada and Jens Petter Hauge (who is favourite over Ajdin Hrustic. The likes of Ansgar Knauff and Filip Kostic will start as wing backs.
Rangers Glasgow (4-3-3): McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Bassey, Barisic; Kamara, Lundstram, Jack; Kent, Aribo, Wright
Ianis Hagi, Filip Helander and Alfredo Morelos are both out injured while Ryan Jack and Kemar Roofe are major doubts. Joe Aribo is expected to be fit and should start in the front trio alongside Scott Wright and Ryan Kent. In midfield Glen Kamara and Jesper Lundstram are likely to get the nod over Aaron Ramsey. The likes of Borna Barisic and James Tavernier will start as full backs. Fashion Sakala and Amad Diallo aim to make an impact from the bench for the Scottish giants.
Our Eintracht Frankfurt v Rangers Predictions
Rangers have already beaten German opponents in Europe this year, and both RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund have finished above Frankfurt in the Bundesliga standings. Performances away from Ibrox in the Europa League have been below par but we expect a very close match between two very good teams. At the end of the day, Ranges can surely come out on top and win European silverware. The game could also go on extra-time and, eventually, on penalties. So, we recommend the 1-1 and 2-2 correct scores after 90 minutes. Despite playing as a right-back, James Tavernier has scored seven goals in the Europa League and could write his name on the scoresheet once again.
