Jablonec vs Rangers: Full confirmed lineups for UEFA Conference League 2026-27 Play-off second leg
Jablonec will need to overcome a deficit to beat Rangers in the second leg.
FK Baumit Jablonec host Rangers at Stadion Strelnice today for the second leg of their Conference League playoff qualifying round match.
The hosts must overcome a one-goal disadvantage if they are to advance to the league phase. Today’s visitors triumphed 1-0 in Scotland last week.
Jablonec’s winning streak came to an end last week at Ibrox. Ryan Don Naderi’s 50th-minute goal gave the Gers a 1-0 win, leaving Kozel’s team behind in the tie.
Jablonec will be buoyed by their victory at home over Varazdin in the second round, but the Gers are a far more formidable opponent.
Despite only winning 1-0 in the first leg, Rangers’ talent was clear throughout the match. The Gers controlled 57% of the ball and made 13 shots to Jablonec’s five, while also creating five great opportunities.
Rangers will try to extend their winning streak and advance to the Conference League league phase by asserting their authority against Jablonec and putting the tie to rest.
The Gers must get over their poor recent away performance in Europe if they are to advance to the league phase, having lost their past seven European games on the road.
