Rangers and FC Copenhagen will lock horns in a friendly encounter as both sides look to resume their respective club campaigns with a victory.
Rangers lost to German outfit Hertha BSC just a few days back during their winter-friendly camp. Manager Philippe Clement was given the marching orders as he kept protesting against a decision from the officials as he witnessed his side put on a shambolic show despite fielding two different sides in both halves.
FC Copenhagen, on the other hand, played their first match since the turn of the year as the Danish league was on pause during the winter break. The Danish side produced a miracle in Europe as they marched into the knockouts of the 2023/24 UCL from Group A of the competition and will look to resume their campaign on a high.
