Match Facts
This match will be Aris Limassol’s first ever European meeting with a Scottish club.
Rangers have won three of their four previous European matches against Cypriot clubs (D1), all of which came against Anorthosis Famagusta in UEFA Champions League qualifiers (W1 D1 in 1995-96, W2 in 2005-06).
Aris Limassol have won three of their four previous home games in all European competitions, losing the other 0-1 to Raków Czestochowa in qualifying for this season’s UEFA Champions League. They have scored 14 goals across those four home matches (3.5 per game).
Rangers have only won two of their last 17 away games across all European competitions (D5 L10), including just one of their last eight in the UEFA Europa League proper (D3 L4), a 4-2 win at Borussia Dortmund in the 2021-22 play-offs.
Abdallah Sima has scored four goals in his last five group stage appearances in the UEFA Europa League, three for Slavia Prague in 2020-21 and Rangers’ winner against Real Betis on MD1 this season.
