Regardless of the who Rangers get in the quarter-final, it will be a great tie.
There is glamour in the form of West Ham or Barcelona, a more winnable encounter for the likes of Braga and then there is the familiarity of Germany or even a return to Lyon, after the teams met in the group stages earlier this season.
All of the fans are buzzing and for Ibrox to be hosting European football in April is just superb and a real boost to all at the club, hopefully that momentum and feel-good factor can spread on the pitch into the Premiership title race as much as it will amongst the support.
April is set to be amazing and action packed on three fronts, including three Old Firm games to come.
Here we go!
