Malmo boss Henrik Rydstrom has issued an ominous warning to Rangers after insisting Olympiacos, their next Europa League opponent, are 'levels' above them.

Philippe Clement's side have got off to a good start in the new-look competition with two wins out of three so far, including an opening game win in Sweden against Malmo.

They face Europa Conference League winners Olympiacos on November 7 in Athens, who also went to Sweden and defeated Malmo last week.

And Rydstrom was impressed with the Greeks.

He said: "I believe we played better against Olympiacos than we did against Rangers at home. But Olympiacos are a level above Rangers too.

"They are a very solid team that works hard and plays well and they had better opportunities than us. 

"Olympiacos were just as good as I thought. They are clearly a quality team."
