Soren Storks is on VAR duty and will be assisted by Gunter Perl.

Referee Stegemann has taken charge of one match involving Rangers previously, back in 2023.

The German was the referee for the 0-0 draw between Rangers and Sparta Prague in the Europa League group stage last season.

That match finished 0-0 with five yellow cards dished out by Stegemann; four to Rangers players and one to the home club.
