ISTANBUL (AA) – Turkey's Galatasaray will face Scotland's Rangers on Thursday for a place in this year’s UEFA Europa League.
The playoff game will kick off behind closed doors at Rangers’ Ibrox Stadium at 9:45 p.m. Turkish time (1845GMT).
The single-leg tie will be officiated by Andris Treimanis from Latvia.
Galatasaray eliminated Croatia’s Hajduk Split with a 2-0 win in the third qualifying round, while Rangers routed Dutch side Willem II 4-0 last week.
The Lions will be without Arda Turan, who is down with fever and flu, as well as the injured trio of goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, defender Marcelo Saracchi, and midfielder Emre Akbaba.
