Real Betis have been hit with a 'very serious' double injury blow to hamper their chances ahead of a do-or-die Europa League clash for Rangers.Philippe Clement takes his side to sunny Seville next week needing a victory to clinch qualification as Group C winners, or ensure progression to the knockouts in second place by matching Sparta Prague's result against visitors Aris, who held the Light Blues to a drab draw at Ibrox on Thursday.But Rangers will be handed a big boost because Manuel Pellegrini's men will be without two of their key players for the match.
