Rangers will face either Servette or Genk in the third round of Champions League qualifying.

Genk finished second in the Belgian Pro League last campaign, while Swiss side Servette ended their season in the same position in their domestic league.

The Ibrox side will need to get through two ties to reach the group stages of the competition after finishing second in the Premiership last season.

Last season they beat Union Saint-Gilloise and PSV Eindhoven on their way to Europe's top club tournament.

However, struggled to compete in the group stages and lost all six matches to Liverpool, Napoli and Ajax.

The first leg will take place on August 8/9 with the return game a week later on August 15.
