Smith ponders Boyd recall as Gers hunt goals in Greece

WALTER SMITH has confirmed he could turn to goal machine Kris Boyd to breach the Panathinaikos defence as Rangers bid to extend their European adventure tonight (5pm).

Boyd has not started a European game since July 31, when he lined up against FK Zeta in Rangers’ first Champions League qualifier.

The 24-year-old is a prolific striker for Rangers however for European games manager Smith has preferred to line up in a 4-5-1 formation, and Boyd has not been considered for the role up front, which has been split between Jean-Claude Darcheville, Daniel Cousin and Lee McCulloch.
