How to watch Sturm Graz v Rangers
Rangers will look to get their first points on the board in the Europa League when they face Sturm Graz in Austria on Thursday night.
Russell Martin’s side were beaten 1-0 by Genk at Ibrox in their league phase opener last week with former Celtic striker Hyeon-gyu Oh scoring a second half winner for the Belgians after Mohamed Diomande had been red carded for the home side shortly before the half-time interval.
The result piled more pressure on Martin, who is facing calls to be sacked after losing 9-1 on aggregate to Club Brugge in the Champions League play-offs and overseeing the club’s worst start to a league season in 47 years, although he secured his first win in the Scottish Premiership at the sixth attempt with a 2-1 victory at Livingston on Sunday thanks to Max Aarons’ injury-time strike.
Sturm Graz, meanwhile, have won five of their opening seven matches in the Austrian Bundesliga and sit second in the table, two points off the top, with a game in hand over leaders Rapid Vienna. They also suffered a defeat in their Europa League opener, going down 2-0 away to Danish side Midtjylland, having dropped out of the Champions League play-offs following a 6-2 aggregate defeat to Bodo/Glimt.
