Match background
Rangers made a promising start to the opening leg when Montoia turned the ball into his own net, but two goals from Szmyt allowed Jagiellonia to establish a slender aggregate advantage.
Derek McInnes’s first competitive matches as Rangers manager have produced one draw and two defeats. The Glasgow club followed the loss in Poland with a 2-1 home defeat against Hibernian, having previously drawn 1-1 at Dundee United in its Scottish Premiership opener.
Rangers have scored in all three games but are yet to keep a clean sheet. They must win the return leg to extend the tie, with a one-goal victory sending the match into extra time and a victory by at least two goals securing qualification in regulation time.
Jagiellonia had won their opening five competitive fixtures before suffering a 2-0 league defeat against Widzew Łódź at the weekend. Adrian Siemieniec’s team are attempting to reach the Europa League proper for the first time, having participated in the Conference League during each of the previous two seasons.
The winner will advance to the Europa League playoff round. The defeated club will transfer to the Conference League playoffs.
Team news
Rangers have suffered two significant injury blows since the first leg. Forward Youssef Chermiti sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury against Hibernian and will be sidelined for an extended period.
