Glasgow is on fire. The Rangers have won 4 straight. One of the victories was a stunning 3-1 win versus Braga, a top five Portuguese Liga squad, in the quarterfinals second leg. The way the Rangers dominated Braga shows they have no fear. Don’t expect Glasgow to enter this match intimidated.

Why RB Leipzig is a good bet versus Glasgow Rangers

Leipzig heads into this off a loss, but before dropping a match to Union Berlin, RB had blasted their opponents. By blasting, we mean beating a quality Serie A squad in Atlanta 2-0 and holding Bayer Leverkusen to 0 goals in a 1-0 win. Both Leverkusen and Atalanta are strong teams. On their pitch, Leipzig should have no trouble grabbing the win.

Final Betting Analysis: Glasgow Rangers at RB Leipzig

There’s a reason Leipzig is the favorite. RBL is in great form, but so is Glasgow. In fact, a case can be made that Glasgow is in better form than many believe.

The Rangers knocked out a decent squad in Braga. More importantly, Leipzig heads into this after a loss. RBL has suffered through losing streaks more than once already this season.

We shouldn’t expect the Rangers to push too hard in this match. Glasgow knows the second leg happens on their pitch. So the main goal on Thursday will be to keep Leipzig from pulling away.

Because the Rangers will pay attention to the pace of this match, they’re a good bet on the handicap. RB Leipzig should win, but Leipzig shouldn’t beat confident Glasgow by more than a goal.

The best bet is the Glasgow Rangers handicap. Glasgow keeps it close.

Europa League Pick: Glasgow Rangers +1 ½
