Jorge Costa is set to miss Porto's UEFA Champions League trip to Rangers. The Portuguese international will be out of action for at least 2 weeks.

The Portuguese Side beat Old Firm outfit Celtic in the UEFA Cup Final 3 years ago ( The Portuguese Kept Diving )

Porto, who won the CL trophy under the guidance of Jose Mourinho in 2004, travel to Ibrox on Tuesday as this season's competition kicks-off all over the continent.

The veteran former Charlton defender will now miss the opening fixture as Porto look to get their campaign off to a good start in a group that also includes Internazionale and Celtic's conquerors Artmedia Bratislava.

Costa will also miss fixtures against Rio Ave and Sporting Braga as Co Adriaanse's side aim to claim back the Portuguese SuperLiga won by Benfica last term.
