Ufa take on the visitors Rangers at the Neftyanik Stadium in the second leg match of the UEFA Europa League play-offs. The match will be played in the eponymous city Ufa on Thursday, August 30th. The first leg match ended with a 1-0 win for Rangers.
Ufa have been struggling because of the tough playing schedule lately. The Townspeople had ten matches in the last thirty days. That has been a new experience for the Russian team so far. Quite frankly, they were lucky to get to the UEFA Europa League play-offs and shocked a lot of fans by doing that. In the first leg fixture against Rangers the team was lucky to concede only goal but now they have a better chance of going through to the group stage. In their last three matches Ufa lost to Zenit with a 0-2 score, to Rangers with a 0-1 score and to Dynamo Moscow with a 0-3 score.

Rangers scored only one goal in the first leg match against Ufa and conceded zero thereby achieving their goal. Overall, the Teddy Bears have a lot more experience than Ufa, a legendary manager and big history. These three qualities give them a high chance of going through to the group stage. However, their actual playing style was not a whole lot better than the playing style of Ufa in the first leg fixture. In their last three matches Rangers drew against Motherwell with a 3-3 score, beat Ufa with a 1-0 score and Kilmarnock with a 3-1 score.
Ufa will probably try to score a quick goal and take the ball under their control in the upcoming fixture. Rangers on the other hand could easily catch their opponents using their counterattacks. It is likely that the Teddy Bears will not lose in Russia.
Prediction for the match: Rangers to win with 0 handicap.
