Super Computer predicts result of Rangers Champions League clash v Ajax
Rangers are predicted to suffer a defeat in their opening Champions League game of the season when they take on Ajax on Wednesday.
Gers kick-start their campaign in Europe after securing a miraculous qualification into the group stages.
However, the draw hasn’t been particularly kind to them, with Liverpool and Napoli also in the same group as them.
FiveThirtyEight crunched the numbers on their Super Computer and have given Gers with just a 14 per cent chance to win this game and the hosts favoured with 67 per cent.
Tough games
No match in the Champions League is going to be easy and Gers are expected to be underdogs whenever they take on anyone there.
They could’ve asked for an easier draw but they’ve now got to test their mettle against top sides and this is going to be a real challenge for Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
Surprisingly, the Gers boss was not given a couple of more players despite securing qualification into Europe’s elite competition.
Despite the additional funds that came in, the board deemed the squad good enough for the rest of the season or at least until the January transfer window.
However, the 4-0 drubbing at the hands of Celtic was a clear indicator that this team is nowhere near ready to even try to get out of the group stages or even usurp their local rivals in the league.
