Philippe Clement's side will travel to either Poland or Belgrade for the first leg on August 6/7 before hosting the return leg at Hampden Park on August 13.

The two teams play the first leg of their second-round qualifier tomorrow before the return leg a week on Wednesday. 

Dynamo are currently playing their football away from home due to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. The venue for their Champions League qualifiers is the Arena Lublin in Poland, which has a capacity of 15,243.

The draw represents a reasonably favourable route for Philippe Clement's side into the play-off round, with the Ibrox side avoiding Fenerbache and Union Saint-Gilloise. 

If Rangers don't win the tie, they'll drop directly into the Europa League group stage.

If they do win they'll face the winners of Salzburg ss Twente Or Lille ss Lugano/Fenerbahçe to reach the Champions League group stage.

Rangers have to announce their squad by August 1st and can only make two changes thereafter until the group stage.

Partizan finished second in the Serbian Superliga last season, behind city rivals Red Star Belgrade who emerged as comfortable winners with 96 points to 78. Their home ground, the Partizan Stadium, holds just shy of 30,000 spectators in the country's capital.

They've already started their domestic season, opening with a 1-0 win over Napredak Kruševac on Friday.  That was the first game of a new regime in the dugout with Aleksandar Stanojevic taking post for the 2024/25 season.

Their standout player is 24-year-old Brazilian forward Matheus Saldanha

Dynamo Kyiv also finished second in their domestic league season behind Shakhtar Donetsk. They're yet to kick off their league campaign with the double-header against Partizan their first competitive game of the season.

They're led by Oleksandr Shovkovskyi who's been in charge of the side since 2023 having previously worked as the national team's assistant coach in 2022.

Their standout player is Vladyslav Vanat, a 22-year-old forward who has seven caps for his national side.
