Rangers vs RB Leipzig kick off times confirmed as Ibrox side chase Europa League glory

UEFA have confirmed the kick off time for Rangers’ Europa League semi-final showdown against RB Leipzig.

And it could mean another late night of Ibrox drama for Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men and their fans.

Both legs of the last four clash will kick off at 8pm - just as they did in the quarter final tie against Braga.

Rangers’ away games in the Europa League group stage kicked off at tea team and their knockout clashes against Borussia Dortmund and Red Star Belgrade were also 5.45pm.

However, it’s 8pm on BT Sport for both RB Leipzig clashes and, after the Braga match went into extra time in the return at Ibrox, it could be a late night of joy or heartache.

Rangers travel to Germany for the first leg at the Red Bull Arena on Thursday, April 28 with the return in Glasgow seven days later.

The Ibrox side have requested this Sunday’s trip to Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership is brought forward to give them more time to prepare for the trip to the Saxony.

But they are waiting for a response from the SPFL who are in discussions with the Steelmen, Sky Sports and Police Scotland.
