Rangers Football Club is a Scottish football club based in Glasgow, which plays in the Scottish Premiership – the first tier of the Scottish Professional Football League. Their home ground is Ibrox Stadium in the south-west of the city.

In domestic football, Rangers have won more league titles and trebles than any other club in the world, winning the league title 54 times, the Scottish Cup 33 times and the Scottish League Cup 27 times, and achieving the treble of all three in the same season seven times. In European football, Rangers was the first British club to reach a UEFA tournament final. It won the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1972 after being runner-up twice in 1961 and 1967. A third runners-up finish in Europe came in the 2008 UEFA Cup.

Founded in March 1872, Rangers were one of the ten founder members of the original Scottish Football League and remained in the top division continuously until their ejection, at the end of the 2011-12 season, due to the liquidation of The Rangers Football Club PLC. Under new ownership, the club was forced to begin the following season in the fourth tier of the Scottish game. Rangers have a long-standing rivalry with Celtic, the two Glasgow clubs being collectively known as the Old Firm since the late 19th century.
