Russell Martin's debut as Rangers head coach comes with the challenge of navigating the second qualifying round of the Champions League. The team is set to discover its opponents—either Brann, Panathanaikos, or Servette—during a crucial draw. Rangers aim to surpass their previous performance, where they reached the Europa League quarter-finals but faced a disappointing early exit in the Champions League qualifiers. Competing with Hibernian and Dundee United, both seeking success in their respective competitions, Martin must lead Rangers successfully through several qualifying stages while facing teams ranked lower in Europe.
On Wednesday, Russell Martin will gauge Rangers' potential Champions League opponents—Brann, Panathanaikos, or Servette, marking a new challenge in his coaching career.
Despite Rangers’ previous successes, including a strong Europa League showing, Martin must surpass high expectations after the loss that relegated them to secondary competitions.
