Sturm Graz vs Rangers LIVE score and goal updates from the Europa League clash

It's situated in what's known as the Green Heart of Austria - but tonight Rangers will be hoping Graz is all blue.

And at the foot of the alps, a victory could go a small way to helping Russell Martin climb what must feel like a huge mountain to win over his Ibrox doubters.

His Europa League task certainly got a whole lot steeper after Martin watched his 10 men go down to Belgian side at Ibrox in their league phase opener.

The Light Blues at least bounced back from that defeat to record their first Scottish Premiership victory under Martin, albeit they left it late before Max Aarons struck a winner at the death on Saturday.

Now they switch back to the continent and it's a huge game against last season's Austrian Bundesliga winners Sturm Graz.

Confidence is at least a bit higher on the back of three points at West Lothian but this will be a much tougher challenge.
