West Ham came within a whisker of meeting Rangers in the Europa League final last season but the two will finally face off this week.
The Hammers fell to a crushing semi-final defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt in May just weeks before the Bundesliga side beat Rangers on penalties in Seville.
The atmosphere will not be the same as it would have been had fans been greeted to a UK showdown in the Europa League but this will still be an important test.
West Ham routed Celtic 6-2 during a trip to Glasgow last summer and Rangers will be anxious to avoid a similar fate ahead of a huge Champions League qualification match on the horizon.

Rangers v West Ham: What has been said?
David Moyes: “It’ll be a really tough game against Rangers on Tuesday, as we know.
“They are maybe about a week or so ahead of us, but I thought it was good that we got something out of (1-1 draw with Reading) as well.
“The international boys have been back a week or so now, so there was 45 or 60 minutes today for them and hopefully they’ll get some more playing time on Tuesday night.”
