Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Rangers vs. Tottenham at Europa League

Where: Ibrox Park, Glasgow, Scotland
When: Friday, December 13, 04:00 AM

The absolute derby of the entire Europa League round will take place in Scotland, and it features two British powerhouses—Rangers and Tottenham. Right now, they sit next to one another in the UEL standings, having the same number of points, but the Gers are eighth, and the Spurs are one place lower. This means that the Scottish side goes directly to the Round of 16, while Tottenham needs to play one more round to reach that point.

Rangers vs. Tottenham Preview

Rangers

Ross County wasn’t too big of a problem for the Gers, as they easily beat the rivals on the road, 0-3. It was their fourth consecutive victory, with the three latest coming with clean sheets.

Philippe Clement’s team didn’t lose in the last eight events, winning six and posting two ties. Overall, their season has started much earlier than usual due to the UCL qualifiers, and for the moment. Rangers played 13 events at Ibrox since August.

They had ten wins, two losses and one tie. On nine occasions, the Rangers scored two or more goals, and overall, they look way better in front of their own crowd than on the road. But that’s nothing new because Scottish teams have such a pattern, particularly on the European stage.

Tottenham

The Spurs had a nasty experience this weekend at home. They’ve opened the game against Chelsea furiously, taking a two-goal lead, but collapsed afterward, allowing four straight hits. In the end, it was 3-4 for the Blues, who flipped the score and not only took three points but killed Tottenham’s morale.

Tottenham hasn’t won in the past four matches. At first, they had back-to-back ties against AS Roma and Fulham, both at home, before losing in Bournemouth and against Chelsea.

Looking at their away results, Ange Postecoglou’s boys are in terrible form outside Tottenham Stadium. Four defeats and just one win over the past five games say enough. Ironically, besides the defeats against Brighton, Galatasaray, Crystal Palace, and Bournemouth, the sole win was against Manchester City, whom they humiliated 0-4 at the Etihad.

Rangers vs Tottenham Head to Head

There was one friendly game recorded recently. In 2022, the Spurs were better than the Gers, 1-2.

Rangers vs. Tottenham Prediction

The Gers are very feisty at home, and they aren’t backing down against any team, let alone the one that plays poorly on the road. We expect them to be highly aggressive and to go after a win. The same applies to Tottenham, which needs to chase all three points due to its situation in the standings. Knowing that the respective attacks are better than their rival’s defenses, we pick over 2.5 goals, and both teams score here.

Our verdict: Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score
