The first leg between the two was a drab affair that ended in a goalless 0-0 draw at Ibrox and Fiorentina striker Adrian Mutu criticised Rangers "negative" approach to the game.

Rangers manager Smith however, has vowed that his side will play with a much more attacking approach to the game in Florence tonight. Rangers are still chasing a lucrative quadruple and the heavy schedule towrds the end of the season has started to take its toll on the Ibrox side.

With an extensive injury list Rangers have started to slip up in recent weeks with a string of bad results most notably against fierce city rivals Celtic but with a UEFA Cup Final place up for grabs The Gers will need no extra motivation ahead of tonight's game.

Fiorentina are currently battling with AC Milan in Serie A for the fourth and final Champions League place so they themselves are having a tough end to the season and will have to try and put the League aside at least for tonight and concentrate on booking their place in the final in Moscow.

Rangers defender David Weir may make the match tonight despite fears his season was over less than a week ago and midfield starlet Steven Davis may also feature tonight after recovering well from a groin strain. Walter smith will also be boosted by the return of captain Barry Ferguson and fellow midfielder Kevin Thomson after suspension.

Fiorentina Coach Cesare Prandelli is expected to name an unchanged side although Marco Donadel could come in and replace Zdravko Kuzmanovic.
