Key stats

  • This is the first UEFA competition match between these teams.
  • Brann’s only previous UEFA matches against a Scottish team were versus St. Mirren in the third qualifying round of the 2024/25 UEFA Conference League when they followed up a 1-1 draw away from home in the first leg with a 3-1 victory at home in the second leg.
  • Brann have won four of their last six UEFA matches (L2).
  • Brann have lost only two of their last ten UEFA matches at home (W6 D2).
  • Only one of Brann’s last 47 UEFA matches has finished without a goal being scored.
  • Sævar Atli Magnússon has scored in Brann’s previous two matches in the league phase of the 2025/26 UEFA Europa League.
  • Rangers are unbeaten in their previous four UEFA matches against Norwegian teams with three wins and one draw.
  • Rangers have not conceded a goal in their previous four UEFA matches against Norwegian teams.
  • Rangers have lost their last five UEFA competition matches.

Brann vs Rangers prediction

Brann come into this one on the back of an impressive 4-1 hammering of Haugesund. They are third in the Norwegian Eliteserien, seven points behind league leaders Viking. They have started the league phase of their UEFA Europa League campaign with a defeat to Lille in France before a win over Utrecht at home.

It has been a miserable campaign thus far for Rangers but they have now sacked Russell Martin and replaced him with former Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl. The Bears returned from the October international break with a 2-2 draw with Dundee United. They have won just five of their 18 matches across all competitions so far this season.

That woeful run from Rangers has been catastrophic and it will take some time for Rohl to turn things around but the avoidance of defeat in Norway still remains something they should be capable of achieving.

Brann vs Rangers tip: Double chance – Rangers to win or draw
