Sparta Prague have had some stability in their recent run and will hope for the same when they play host to Scottish champions Rangers on Match Day 2 of the Europa League. The two are occupying the bottom two slots in Group A, with Sparta Prague third on one point and Rangers bottom with no point so far. Sparta Prague drew 0-0 with Brondby away on Match Day 1 and go to this game having beaten Zlin 5-2 away from home. Vaclav Drchal has four goals in the last five matches and he will be a man to watch here. Meanwhile Sparta Prague have scored two or more goals in three of their last five matches and they have two clean sheets in five matches. They have however conceded two or more goals in two of five matches and do not enjoy a very good run in the Europa League. In their last three Europa League games, Sparta Prague have no win; they failed to score in the last two and have two losses in the three matches. They’ve won just three of their last 10 Europa League matches and at home, in the same competition, they have two wins and two losses in their last five.

Rangers have also found their rhythm and go to this game with two straight wins after failing to win in the earlier two. They’re coming from a 1-0 away win at Dundee and will be looking to avoid the mistakes that saw them fall 2-0 to Lyon on Match Day 1. In the last three matches, Rangers are unbeaten and have two straight clean sheets. They have one loss and seven wins in their last 10 matches, a run in which they have failed to score in just two games. Their best results have come in away matches; they head here unbeaten in four away games, winning three, with two clean sheets, and scoring in three. Rangers are unbeaten in eight away matches in Europa League, winning five, keeping five clean sheets and only failing to score in two. They have one loss in 12 away matches in Europa League.
