RANGERS will be determined to restore some pride in their Champions League fixture against Napoli – but they face an uphill battle.
The Scottish giants were humiliated 7-1 by out-of-form Liverpool in their last European outing despite taking the lead.
And it was a result that meant Rangers are yet to register a single point in this season's competition.
However, Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side can still secure a Europa League spot and they trail third-place Ajax by only three points.
But Ranger come up against a Napoli side who have gone unbeaten since the start of their 2022/23 campaign.
