To reach the Champions League group stage Rangers must first overcome their third qualifying round opposition before winning a two-legged play-off round.
Genk and Servette had drawn 1-1 in the first-leg.
Servette were reduced to ten men just five minutes into the second leg when Enzo Crivelli was ordered off for a challenge on Genk captain Bryan Heynen who left the pitch on a stretcher.
Mike Tressor netted a penalty to put Genk ahead but the visitors levelled through a Timothy Cognat deflected free-kick.

Genk regained the lead when Tolu Arokodare bundled home in the second half but Servette equalised again through Chris Bedia just after the hourmark.
The scoreline remained 2-2 - or 3-3 on aggregate - forcing a penalty shoot-out.
And after a remarkable performance to take it to penalties, Servette snatched a 4-1 victory from spot-kicks to tee up a trip to Ibrox next week.
