Danny Rohl double blunder to cost Rangers as starting XI confirmed vs Roma
Gian Piero Gasperini will be rubbing his hands as Roma face Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday.
Ibrox will welcome the Giallorossi on 6 November, with the Gers looking to get their first points on board in the competition.
Russell Martin left Danny Rohl with a massive task in the Europa League, with the Light Blues currently sitting last in the table.
Having lost the first three matches in the Europa League, it doesn’t seem like the German manager is serious about beating the Serie A outfit.
Nasser Djiga and Youssef Chermiti start for Rangers vs Roma
Rohl has opted to continue with Nasser Djiga as the Gers have confirmed their starting lineup to face Roma.
The Wolves loanee was arguably woeful against Celtic in the Premier Sports Cup semi-final loss and has surprisingly kept his place over Derek Cornelius at Ibrox.
It looks like James Tavernier and John Souttar will be the other two centre-backs, with Max Aarons and Jayden Meghoma on the wings providing support.
Connor Barron and Nicolas Raskin’s partnership makes sense to add solidity in the midfield, while Mikey Moore and Djeidi Gassama are also worthy of starting spots, although Youssef Chermiti has done nothing to start over Danilo against the Giallorossi.
Roma are the favourites going into the game at Ibrox, and they will undoubtedly fancy their chances against the Gers’ backline.
The Light Blues have conceded 33 goals in all competitions this season, and that’s something the home fans will once again be worried about as the former Sheffield Wednesday boss has certainly made two blunders in his lineup.
Ibrox faithful to be worried about Roma record
Roma will be one of the biggest tests for Rohl, as the Italian giants currently sit fourth in Serie A and have drawn zero games across all competitions so far.
Gasperini made a name for himself at Atalanta, and the German manager will have a mountain to climb at Rangers to get the better of the tactical maestro.
Fans in G51 are aware that the Glaswegian outfit are the underdogs going into the fixture, but they will still want to see some fight from their team.
Hopefully, the frailties the Gers showed against Celtic in the Premier Sports Cup semi-final loss have been addressed by Rohl, as they undoubtedly need a solid performance from their defence to have a chance against Roma.
