![]() They squeezed past Ajax in the last game and could do with at least four points from two games against Rangers but hopefully six and that should see them through after their initial wobble.” The other thing for Rangers is that Liverpool really need a win. And Liverpool are full of quality, and we all know what they are like on European nights when Anfield is a really special place. Rangers’ scorelines in their first two games wouldn’t give you too much optimism. At Ibrox it will be a different kettle of fish, but at Anfield I expect it to be reasonably straightforward for Liverpool. “Liverpool aren’t absolutely flying but still obvious it’s a formidable ask for Rangers.

It’s almost like they’ve gotten rid of their 'Get Out Of Jail card' already, their buffer. “The problem with Liverpool at the minute, and I wouldn’t say their season is teetering at all, but the season is only a couple of results from being a case of, ‘Oh, my gosh!
