Preliminary review and match prediction for Rangers vs Hearts
After losing the final of the UEFA Europa League this Wednesday, Rangers will be looking to bounce back in the Scottish FA Cup final. The Gers were close to European glory, but Aaron Ramsey missed a crucial penalty.
However, despite the setback, the Gio van Bronckhorst’s side should be proud of their achievement. In 2012-13, they were in the fourth tier of Scottish football. Just nine seasons later, they reached the UEFA Europa League final.
