Standard de Liège, Rangers and Lech Poznan were placed in Group D, along with Benfica.

Standard Liege

The Belgians from Standard de Liège left Pot 2 for Group D of the Europa League, where they will face Benfica. After a fifth place in the championship, the team led by Philippe Montanier faced three qualifiers before reaching the group stage: they defeated Bala Town, Vojvodina and MOL. Mehdi Carcela’s reunion with the eagles is also noteworthy. The 31-year-old forward played for Luz in the 2015/16 season.

Rangers

The fate of the Rangers continues with the Portuguese teams. Last season, the Scots faced FC Porto and Braga – they eliminated the Arsenal players – in this same competition and are now in the same group as Benfica. Behind, Steven Gerrard’s team left Lincoln Red Imps, Willem II and Galatasary. Colombian forward Alfredo Morelos is the star of the team.

Lech Poznan

The last team to be drawn in Group D comes from Poland. They are Lech Poznan, who beat Hammarby, Apollon Limassol and Charleroi to reach the group stage. In the Polish squad, led by Dariusz Zuraw, the Portuguese midfielder Pedro Tiba stands out.
