Jagiellonia Białystok - Rangers FC: head to head and statistics

Rangers FC - Jagiellonia Białystok, 13 Aug 2026

A 1–1 draw at Ibrox on 13 August 2026 proved insufficient for Rangers FC, as Jagiellonia Białystok advanced to the Europa League play-off round with a 3–2 aggregate victory. The Polish side had won the first leg 2–1 and secured progression thanks to an away goal in Glasgow.

Lawrence Shankland equalised for Rangers from the penalty spot in the 19th minute after a VAR review identified a handball by Yuki Kobayashi. The visitors responded in the 65th minute when Nik Prelec finished from close range, assisted by Anders Klynge.

Despite numerous substitutions from both teams in the second half, the scoreline remained unchanged. Jagiellonia registered three shots on target from six attempts, while Rangers managed four on target from 12, underlining the fine margins that decided the tie.

Jagiellonia Białystok secured a major victory by beating Scottish side Rangers FC 2–1 in front of their home fans in the first leg of the Europa League third qualifying round. The match at Słoneczna got off to a nightmare start for the hosts — as early as the 4th minute, they conceded after an unfortunate intervention from Guilherme Montoi. Białystok quickly took control of the game, however, and Kajetan Szmyt scored twice before half-time to turn the match around.

Jagiellonia were clearly the better side against the 55-time Scottish champions and created numerous chances in both halves. The hosts could have won by a wider margin, leaving some disappointment with the final score. Nevertheless, the Polish club will travel to Glasgow for the second leg with a valuable one-goal advantage and strong hopes of reaching the play-off round.
