Command Analysis
Rangers
ScotlandCurrent form
The Rangers once again failed to impose serious competition on Celtic in the championship. After 32 rounds, the usual second place is 13 points behind the main opponent. The wards of acting head coach Barry Ferguson have not shown stable results in the national championship lately – three wins and two losses in the previous five rounds. The day before, a 0:2 home defeat against Hibernian was recorded.
The Rangers are now pinning all their hopes on playing in the Europa League. At the general stage, the teddy bears won a 2-1 home victory over Union in the final round and thus finished in eighth place, making it straight to the 1/8 finals. At this stage, the Scots had a difficult opponent, Fenerbahce. They made a decent start on the road, when they managed to win sensationally with a score of 3:1. It was not easy at home, the opponent won 2-0 in regular time, and scored a two-goal handicap. In extra time, no goals were scored, and in the penalty shootout, the Rangers players were more accurate.
On the eve of the game with Athletic, it is alarming that the Gers lost, taking into account all the tournaments in five matches in a row, and there were no really formidable opponents except Fenerbahce.
Disqualifications and injuries
Two players of the main squad will miss the game due to too many yellow cards.: Souttar and Diomande.

Approximate line—up: Butland — Tavernier, Propper, Balogun — Sterling, Ruskin, Barron, Jefte - Cherny, Lawrence — Dessers.
Athletic Bilbao
SpainCurrent form
Athletic are coming into the home stretch of the season with good prospects both in the Primera and in the Europa League. In the example, the Basques have an excellent chance of finishing in fourth place and getting a ticket to the Champions League next season. After 30 rounds, they are in the coveted fourth place with a six-point lead over their closest pursuer, Villarreal, although the competitor played one less match. It was against Villarreal that the team had the last game, where it was not possible to identify the strongest (0-0).
In the Europa League at the main stage, Athletic scored 19 points in eight rounds, with which they finished in second place. Only in terms of additional indicators, Ernesto Valverde's team lost the first position to Lazio. The Basques suffered their only defeat on the road from Besiktas with a crushing score of 1:4. In the 1/8 finals, they had Roma as their opponent. Athletic lost 1-2 in Rome, but won 3-1 at home and advanced to the quarterfinals. Then the removal from the Romans in the 11th minute of the game really helped.
Before the trip to Glasgow, the Basques had two consecutive goalless draws in the championship with Osasuna and Villarreal. Plus, taking into account all the tournaments for the last seven away matches, Athletic won only one victory.

1.73Tip and bets
The current Europa League draw is special for Athletic, as the final will be held at their home arena, San Mames. The players have a great desire to get into the decisive match and fight for the title. The Rangers began to fail regularly on their own field, as evidenced by a series of five defeats in a row. It will be very difficult to crack the well-organized Basque defense, and the guests use their moments clearly, they have no special problems with the implementation. Plus, Souttar and Diomande will not play for the hosts today, and these are quite serious losses. We believe that Athletic will be able to win in a difficult fight.
Our betting tip is for Athletic to win by a factor of 2.05
Bet on the total
The Rangers will obviously be betting on achieving a positive result on their own field, as it is difficult to count on anything in Bilbao, and the basques at home practically do not allow misfires. Obviously, the hosts will take risks, boldly go ahead and score their own goal. At the same time, the Gers defense is far from showing itself in the best way – they missed at home in five previous matches in a row. We expect the opponents to exchange goals scored today.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.72
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
This is not to say that there is a significant gap in class between Rangers and Athletic, so that one can count on someone's crushing victory in the betting tips. The Gers have lost five matches in a row, three of them with a one-goal difference. We expect the Basques to achieve victory with a minimal advantage.
Prediction – Athletic will win with a one-goal difference with a coefficient of 3.80
