Nice suffered a scare ahead of their Europa League showdown with Rangers after manager Franck Haise was rushed to hospital.
Rangers face a daunting task in France against a Nice side who have only lost one game at home since March and are unbeaten in their last eight games.
However, Nice manager Haise was taken ill after complaining of severe headaches after their 2-1 win against Strasbourg at the weekend and missed the post-match media duties.
His situation was deemed serious enough for Haise to be rushed to the city's Pasteur Hospital where he underwent tests and spent the night.
But he's been given the all-clear to resume his responsibilities by doctors and he is expected to be in the dug-out opposite under-pressure Ibrox boss Philippe Clement on Thursday night.
