In this Europa League group, Betis is nearest to advancing to the next stage, however, both Rangers and Sparta Prague are trailing by just two points. A victory in the impending tie could significantly boost either team’s chances of reaching the knockout phase.
The primary goal for Rangers every season is to secure victory in the Scottish Premiership, thus they cannot content themselves with a deficit of eight points compared to their main rival, Celtic. The team has claimed victory in five out of the last six matches across all competitions. Just last weekend, they scored a 3-1 victory over Hearts in the League Cup semifinal, a match they dominated from the get-go, unsurprisingly guaranteeing their spot in the final. With this winning streak, Rangers will be brimming with confidence as they gear up for their match against Sparta Prague.
Sparta Prague is performing admirably in the Czech league this season, currently leading the national league table, two points ahead of their main competitor, Slavia. However, they’ve only claimed victory in two out of their last four matches. Brian Priske’s squad secured a 2-0 win against Bohemians at home last weekend, boasting 67% ball possession and 19 goal attempts, which led to an effortless win. Despite their victory in the last match, it was evident that Sparta Prague has been grappling with some difficulties recently, making it challenging to predict a stellar performance in their upcoming game against Rangers.
Rangers vs Sparta Prague pick: Rangers to win
Two weeks ago, Rangers and Sparta Prague faced off in a head-to-head match that ended in a 0-0 draw. Despite the score, a deeper look at the statistics shows the Czech team had a slight edge. However, with the match taking place at Ibrox Stadium, Rangers are more likely to secure a win, making them the best betting choice for this game.
