Brondby will host Rangers in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League group stage fixture on Thursday.
The visitors won their matchday three clash with a 2-0 victory on home turf a fortnight ago. Leon Balogun and Kemar Roofe scored first-half goals to guide Steven Gerrard's men to victory.
The victory saw the Scottish giants claim their first points in the competition and they currently sit in third spot in Group A on three points. Brondby are bottom of the standings with one point.
The home side come into the game on the back of a narrow 1-0 away victory over Viborg in the Danish SuperLiga. Christian Cappis scored the winning goal four minutes from time.
Rangers ran riot in a 6-1 victory over Motherwell away from home in the Scottish Premiership. Zambian international Fashion Sakala inspired the rout with a hat-trick.
Both sides will be keen on securing maximum points to keep their quest for qualification for the knockout stage alive.
