Frankfurt were dealt with a massive injury blow in the semi-final, Austrian defender Martin Hinteregger was forced off after seven minutes with a hamstring injury - which will see him sidelined for at least a few months.

Evan Ndicka also looked doubtful for the German side, but they'll be happy to know he looks fit and ready to feature in tomorrow's game.

As for Rangers, the trio of Filip Helander, Alfredo Morelos and Ianis Hagi are all unfortunately still unavailable, but some positive news is that Kemar Roofe is pushing extremely hard to be involved - but will certainly be touch and go.

Frankfurt Predicted XI: Trapp; Toure, Ndicka, Tuta; Knauff, Sow, Rode, Kostic; Kamada, Hauge; Borre

Rangers Predicted XI: McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Bassey, Barisic; Kamara, Lundstram, Jack; Kent, Aribo, Wright


Head to Head

Wednesday's final will be the first meeting between the two sides since 1960, when the two faced off in the European Cup semi-finals, with Frankfurt battering the Scottish side 6-1 on aggregate over two legs.


Odds

Here are the odds that are being offered by various bookmakers:

Frankfurt: 23/17

Draw: 12/5

Rangers: 2/1


Prediction: Frankfurt 2 - 1 Rangers

Both sides are certainly in with a shot at winning this final judging from previous fixtures, but the German side's quality of players looks far too much for Rangers to come away with a victory. They also don't have their home crowd on their side which was such a huge factor against RB Leipzig, so although we think this will be close - Frankfurt will ultimately be Europa League 2022 champions.
