- 流浪者队在最近九场欧联杯主场比赛中保持不败
- 在过去15场对阵伊布罗克斯的比赛中，格尔斯队在12场比赛中至少梅开二度
- 本菲卡在最近四场客场比赛中都没有获胜
本菲卡’；客场的挣扎可能会继续
对于流浪者队来说，这可能是一个不错的赛季，因为他们在苏格兰超级联赛中领先两分，他们可以抓住机会，在周四的伊布罗克斯击败本菲卡队，获得欧联杯四分之一决赛的席位。
在菲利普·克莱门特（Philippe Clement）的带领下，格尔斯队重新回到了冠军争夺战中，他们在欧洲主场的表现足以表明他们可以战胜葡萄牙对手，后者有点摇摆不定。
尽管上周2-2战平，本菲卡仍然是晋级的热门；第一回合，他们需要一个点球和一个乌龙球来避免脸红。
在四场客场比赛未尝胜绩后，他们对格拉斯哥之旅的信心可能很低，最后一场客场比赛他们以5-0大胜波尔图。
Gers阵营信心高涨
流浪者队上一次在自己的比赛中以2比1输给了马瑟韦尔队，但在小组赛中战胜皇家贝蒂斯队和布拉格斯巴达队意味着他们对本菲卡充满信心；的访问。
在过去的15场主场比赛中，除了三场比赛外，他们在所有比赛中都至少进了两球，因此苏格兰队2-1获胜可能会引起那些希望获得正确比分的人的兴趣。
- Rangers are unbeaten in their last nine Europa League home matches
- The Gers have scored at least twice in 12 of their last 15 games at Ibrox
- Benfica are winless in their last four away games
Benfica’s away struggles could continue
It is looking like it could be a good season for Rangers as they sit two points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership and they can take their chance to gain a Europa League quarter-final place by beating Benfica at Ibrox on Thursday.
The Gers have climbed their way back into title contention under Philippe Clement and their European home performances have been strong enough to suggest they can get past their Portuguese opponents, who have had a bit of a wobble.
Benfica remain favourites to progress in the tie despite a 2-2 draw in last week’s first leg, where they needed a penalty and an own goal to spare their blushes.
And confidence levels could be low for their trip to Glasgow after four away games without a win, culminating in a 5-0 thumping at Porto on the last occasion they were on their travels.
Confidence high in the Gers camp
Rangers suffered a slip with a 2-1 defeat to Motherwell the last time they were on their own patch, but victories over Real Betis and Sparta Prague in the group stage should mean they are full of beans for Benfica’s visit.
They have scored at least twice in all but three of their last 15 home matches, so a 2-1 victory for the Scots could be of interest for those looking for a correct-score interest.
