The Matchday 4 clash in the 2025/26 Europa League group stage between Rangers (Scotland) and Roma (Italy) will take place on November 6 at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow. Rangers vs. Roma: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Rangers
The Scottish side had a disappointing start to the Europa League group stage. In the first round, they suffered a home defeat to Genk (0-1), followed by a 1-2 loss away to Sturm Graz. As a result, Rangers, along with three other clubs, find themselves at the bottom of the table with zero points, occupying the last spot due to a worse goal difference. Additionally, Rangers have not won in their last six Europa League matches (1 draw, 5 losses).
- The team has not won in 7 of their last 9 home matches in the Europa League (3 draws, 4 losses).
- Rangers have not conceded more than one goal in 12 of their last 14 home games in this European competition.
- At least one of the opponents failed to score in 5 of Roma's last 6 Europa League fixtures.
Predicted lineup for Rangers (4-5-1)
Jack Butland – John Souttar, James Tavernier, Derek Cornelius, Jayden Megoma – Nicolas Raskin, Connor Barron, Jayden Gassama, Mikey Moore, Oliver Antman – Youssef Chermiti.
Midfielder Kieran Dowell will not play due to injury.
Roma
Gian Piero Gasperini's side unexpectedly lost at home to Viktoria Plzen, 1-2, in the previous round. As a result, Roma have lost three of their last four Europa League matches. Additionally, the team has failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven games in this European competition. The Italians are currently 15th in the table with three points.
- Roma have not won in 7 of their last 8 away Europa League matches (4 draws, 3 losses).
- The team has conceded in their last eight away games in this European competition.
- At least three goals have been scored in 5 of Roma's last 6 away matches in the Europa League.

Rangers vs. Roma: Match Prediction
While the Scots have not been consistently strong at home in European competitions, they strive for a positive result until the end. Rangers are particularly notable for their solid defense: in their last 14 home Europa League matches, they have not conceded more than one goal. Additionally, they have kept a clean sheet in four of these games.
The Romans do not feel as comfortable on the road as they do at home. Furthermore, the team lacks high scoring efficiency: in their last 13 away Europa League matches, Roma have not scored more than one goal. Moreover, in four encounters during this period, the Italians failed to score at all.
I believe the hosts will manage to contain Roma's attack and not concede more than one goal. My prediction: Roma Individual Total Under 1.5
