Sparta Prague manager boss Brian Priske has plenty of Rangers respect - but anticipates a Europa League aerial bombardment when the pair lock horns.

It's a rematch at the same stage that the Light Blues met the Czech club two years ago, and they will also face Real Betis and Cypriot side Aris Limassol in the second tier group stage phase.

Priske is desperate to avoid bottom in order to have at least Europa Conference League football to look forward to at Sparta Prague beyond Christmas, and reckons Michael Beale's Rangers will take an old fashioned approach against them.

He said: "We have very interesting matches against three quality teams that differ in their concept. We have respect for them all.
