Rangers begin their 2026-27 Europa League adventure in Poland on Thursday night.

Indeed, Derek McInnes will be hoping his side get off to a better start in Europe than they've done in the Scottish Premiership.

Last Friday's 1-1 draw with Dundee United at Tannadice was the typically close and cagey affair that opening day games bring, and Gers were good value to take home a point in the end thanks to Thelo Aasgaard's strike.

Now the pace changes, as Rangers' head to the 22,400-seater Chorten Arena for the first leg of their Europa League third round qualification tie against Jagiellonia.

The boys from Bialystok will pose a stern test for the Bears, with the winners of the two-legged tie facing either Larne or Iberia Tbilisi in the qualification final.

Ahead of Thursday's 5pm kick-off UK time, Ibrox News brings you all the latest information on how you can watch the game live.

Where you can watch live screening of Rangers vs Jagiellonia

As is often the case with European fixtures, confirmation of broadcasting details and television channels are often not announced until the eve of the fixture in many cases.

This is currently the case with Rangers' trip to Jagiellonia, as no official confirmation has yet been made on what TV channel(s) are showing it.

However, Edmiston House have confirmed that they're showing a live screening of the game on Thursday night, with doors opening from 3pm.

Tickets are free, but do incur a booking fee of £1.50 per ticket, with the minimum age of entry being 14 and under 18's must be accompanied by an adult.

The fact that Edmiston House are showing the match would suggest that Rangers have the rights to broadcast the game, and so it could yet be announced that RangersTV will livestream it as well.

Premier Sports has also shown qualification ties for Hearts and Hibernian recently too, so look out for a potential announcement from them too about picking up the Rangers game.

So, what kind of form are Jagiellonia in and will they be confident of beating Rangers on Thursday night?

Everything Rangers fans need to know about Jagiellonia as Europa League draw confirmed

How far back does Jagiellonia's unbeaten run stretch?

If any Rangers fan is thinking Jagiellonia are going to be pushovers and a simple route to the Europa League qualification final, they may wish to think again.

Adrian Siemieniec's side won the Polish Ekstraklasa (top-flight) in 2023-24, and have finished third in consecutive campaigns since.

They're currently on a four-game winning run in all competitions and are unbeaten in their last seven, having not tasted defeat since 24 April this year.

Jagiellonia also reached the knockout stages of the UEFA Conference League last season, but were beaten in the round of 32 5-4 on aggregate by Fiorentina.

Siemieniec, 34, has a largely young side at his disposal, and so they won't be fearful of Rangers and will be backed by a big vocal home support too.

This is going to be a real early test of character for this new Rangers group, and McInnes should be content with their nights work so long as they return to Glasgow with the tie there's for the taking in the second leg.
