Head to Head Record: Rangers vs Lyon
Rangers and Lyon have met four times across competitions, where Lyon have picked up two wins while Rangers only won once. The other match ended in a draw.
Rangers
One of the most decorated clubs in European football, Rangers have long waited for a European trophy. The side have shown some signs of dominance over the last few seasons in domestic competitions, especially under Steven Gerrard, but since his departure, they have once again fallen back to normal ways. They are off to a good start this season in Europe, with a 2-0 away win against Malmo in their opening match. .
Lyon
It has been a tricky road in European competitions over the years for Lyon, who have been alternating between Champions League and Europa League for a while. However, their European dreams hang a lot heavily on this competition considering the start they had in the league, where they won two and lost three in six matches so far. Pierre Sage has a lot of work cut out, but a victory here could go a long way into dealing with his major problems.
