Pavel Pogrebnyak, the competition's top scorer with ten strikes for Zenit, is suspended after picking up a needless booking against Bayern, but Andrei Arshavin is back from his own spell in the sin-bin, as are Radek Sirl and former Rangers player Fernando Ricksen. Lombaerts and Dong-Jin remain out due to injury, although Dominguez is returning to fitness. Zenit's attackers tend to move with the ball and have a pacy dynamicism to their play.
The Teddy Bears will most likely line up with one up front as they look to defend. First-choice goalkeeper Alan McGregor is still out, as are Charlie Adam, Chris Burke and Stephen Naismith. DaMarcus Beasley, out since November with ligament damage, recently made his return to action and could be considered, as could Lee McCulloch. Kevin Thomson is a slight doubt. Daniel Cousin is suspended after his antics against Fiorentina in the last round.

got to say, im absolutely gutted. Currently running a little spread bet which included Rangers doing this quadruple the blue half of Glasgow have been talking about. Looks like the value of my £10 initial bet will have diminished significantly after last nights performance....
