Rangers earn 'ultimate' TV status as Europa League corker with Red Star gets top billing

Armchair Rangers supporters will be able to sample their clash with Red Star Belgrade in 4K as BT Sport gear up for a mouthwatering Euro night at Ibrox.

The broadcaster's ultimate channel allows subscribers to view games un ultra high definition and Gio van Bronckhorst 's side have been shortlisted.

Celtic supporters were treated to similar for their matinee show against Ferencvaros during the Europa League group stage but the decision to Rangers the red carpet treat speaks volumes.

Their clash with Dortmund was available on Ultimate but the latest show of faith in the Ibrox side comes with David Moyes' West Ham entering at the last 16 stage.

Rangers supporters were left giddy with the coverage from BT Sport for the stunning triumph over Dortmund, which included a new camera that swept over the Club Deck amid goal celebrations.

Van Bronckhorst is aiming to guide his side into the last eight of a European competition for the first time since Walter Smith's side marched all the way to the UEFA Cup Final in 2008.

The first leg takes place on Thursday before the return in Belgrade on March 17.
