Key Panathinaikos ace ruled out of Champions League decider vs Rangers
Rangers take a two-goal lead to Athens this week as they bid to make it through to the third qualifying round of the competition. Panathinaikos are relying on a bumper crowd at the Olympic Stadium to help them overturn the 2-0 deficit - something they have never managed to do on seven previous attempts. But they will have to do it without 39-times capped star Siopis, who had a spell in the English Championship with Cardiff City until he moved to Panathinaikos earlier this year. Read more: Panathinaikos stated: "Our preparation for the rematch against Rangers continued this weekend with morning training sessions at our stadium. "However, Manolis Siopis underwent treatment for a first-degree sprain to his sacrum in his spine that he suffered in Friday's training session. "After a scan, he is expected to be out of action for approximately ten days." The Greeks are already without the suspended Giorgos Vayannidi, after he was sent off at Ibrox in the first leg.
