Because it involves two very well-known teams, unlike other games that involve well-known teams against little-known teams. For the Rangers game against Panathinaikos, it will be a difficult game to predict, both teams finished second in their leagues last season and I don't see much difference between the two
Both teams are well-known & considered strong in their respective leagues, but the difference in strength is clear in this match. The quality of the Scottish Premiership is superior to the league where Panathinaikos & Olympiacos play. For that reason, we can also see different odds in the Rangers - Panathinaikos match. So far, for 1X2 bets, I see Rangers getting @1,86 while Panathinaikos gets @4,00. I've no plans to bet on this match, but if I had to, I think I would choose Rangers over Panathianaikos.
Rangers have an advantage over the Greek team because they're playing in their own league. Panathinaikos is one of Greece's oldest and best teams. Meeting Rangers in the second qualifying round is unfortunate for them. Similarly, I'd say this match is unfortunate for Rangers, as both teams have a chance of advancing. If they want to advance to the third qualifying round, they must win this tough match. Considering the Scottish teams' performance last year, I think they'll advance.
