Oh Hyeon-gyu will return to Glasgow for the first time since leaving Celtic.
The South Korean international never managed to make an impact at the Hoops before being sold to Genk in the Belgian Pro League.
Genk face Rangers in the Europa League, where Oh will play after his Stuttgart transfer broke down on deadline day.
Returning to Glasgow won’t feel strange for the striker, which is a stark contrast to how he felt while playing for Celtic.
Oh Hyeon-gyu recalls ‘verbal abuse’ he would receive from Rangers fans
Oh played four times at Ibrox for Celtic, winning three and losing one.
He will now lead the line as the main talisman knowing what to expect, but admitted that he experienced a culture shock after receiving ‘verbal abuse’ from Rangers supporters.
Speaking to Het Belang van Limburg, the 24-year-old said: “You can say that again. Fortunately, at Celtic I could count on other foreigners such as Jota, Maeda and Kuhn, who took me under their wing.
“I usually stayed indoors. I often had to pose for photos with Celtic fans. And if I was recognised by a Rangers supporter, I was sometimes verbally abused. But it was only verbal abuse, although I wisely never ventured out into the suburbs.”
Oh Hyeon-gyu sends Genk teammates Ibrox warning
Given the fragile nature of Rangers right now, Genk know they are there for the taking.
The atmosphere will still be loud and the forward has told his Belgian teammates to be prepared for a ‘hostile night’.
“I’ve played at Ibrox four times. We won three times, but unfortunately, we lost the time I started,” Oh recalled. “But the hostile atmosphere was always a bit of a shock. I’ve already warned my teammates about that.”
