Build-Up to Rangers' Crucial Second-Leg Clash Against Viktoria Plzeň in the Champions League Third Qualifying Round - Plus, Brendan Rodgers Calls for More Attacking Options as Celtic Face Transfer Deadline Pressure.

The team discuss Rangers' inconsistent domestic form, with dropped points against Dundee and Motherwell raising concerns.

There is a debate about the club’s decision to reverse their earlier stance on postponing the St. Mirren fixture, suggesting it reflects pressure from Celtic’s strong start.
