Rangers could face another reunion with Progres in the Europa League if they can get past Lincoln Red Imps of Gibraltar. 

The Light Blues will face the Luxembourg-based outfit in the third qualifying round if they can overcome Dutch side Willem II.

Rangers won revenge over the minnows last season, winning 2-0 on aggregate in the second qualifying round.

At the start of the 2017/18 campaign, Progres handed Rangers one of their most embarrassing nights, as they stunned the Ibrox faithful with a 2-0 victory.

Despite winning the first leg 1-0 it meant Rangers existed the Europa League early and saw Pedro Caixinha face a fight for his job.

Rangers are a different animal these days, however, and the draw regardless of who they face looks favourable.

Willem II are a decent side who look well organised under Adrie Koster but Steven Gerrard will fancy his side.

If Progres reach the next stage along with Rangers it will naturally bring back some painful memories.

With that in mind, the club’s supporters have been reacting to the news on Twitter.

Some are happy with the draw, whilst others think it will be a challenge but it’s fair to say some would relish the chance to put Progres in their place again.

Here is a selection of Tweets from the Rangers faithful.
