Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are set to host FC UFA in the Europa League tomorrow.

Steven Gerrard is unveiled as the new manager of Rangers football Club at Ibrox Stadium on May 4, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Glasgow Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has confirmed at his latest press conference that Lassana Coulibaly won’t be involved in his side’s match in the Europa League tomorrow.

Rangers are due to host FC Ufa at Ibrox tomorrow, but their chances of victory have been dealt a blow.

Rangers will have to do without Jamie Murphy for the season, and they have also been frustrated, as Coulibaly will be out.

Gerrard spoke earlier in the week suggesting that he was hopeful that Coulibaly would make it back in time to feature tomorrow, but it seems that his injury is just too severe.

Coulibaly’s absence is a blow to Rangers, as the summer signing has already proven his quality.

Lassana Coulibaly of Rangers is seen during the Pre-Season Friendly match between Rangers and Wigan Athletic at Ibrox Stadium on July 29, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Coulibaly’s performances were crucial to helping Rangers progress this far in qualifying, as he was excellent against Maribor in the last round.

Rangers are still unbeaten under Gerrard so far this season, but that record is set to be tested by the Russian side tomorrow.
