Celtic and Rangers have excelled in the Europa League this season with both clubs enjoying a number of famous wins in the competition.

And while the wins have seen Scotland rise to 15th in the overall nation coefficient, both Celtic and Rangers have boosted their own coefficient which could improve their overall seeding in future qualification.

The club coefficients are based on the results of clubs competing in the five previous seasons of the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League. The rankings determine the seeding of each club in relevant UEFA competition draws.
