Team News

Rangers
Kilmarnock
  • Rangers boss Philippe Clement made two changes after the Gers clinched an emphatic victory in France with a 4-1 win against Nice on Thursday night, before a sole goal was enough to see off St Johnstone in Perth on Sunday.
  • Jack Butland continued in goal behind a back four of club captain James Tavernier who replaced Dujon Sterling, John Souttar, Robin Pröpper and Jefte. Connor Barron and Nico Raskin sat in front of the Gers backline once again.
  • Ianis Hagi took Mohamed Diomande's place in the starting XI, joining Nedim Bajrami and Vaclav Cerny in support of lone striker Hamza Igamane who netted twice in France last Thursday night.
  • Kilmarnock boss Derek McInnes named three changes to the Killie team that lost 1-0 to St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park after the international break, before they salvaged a 1-1 draw with Dundee at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon.
  • Robby McCrorie continued in goal behind an unchanged defence consisting of Lewis Mayo, Joe Wright and Robbie Deas. Corrie Ndaba continued on the left hand-side, as Gary Mackay-Steven was handed a start on the right-hand side at Danny Armstrong's expense.
  • Brad Lyons remained in the middle of the park, as Liam Donnelly missed their match at the weekend due to suspension so Fraser Murray took his place. Bruce Anderson replaced David Watson as Killie went three up front with Marley Watkins and Kyle Vassell.

Prediction

  • Two of last season's Scottish Premiership top four meet in midweek, as Rangers host Kilmarnock at Ibrox with both sides underwhelming so far this season.
  • The Gers continued their strong recent record versus St Johnstone, winning their last eight against Saints without conceding a single goal, but with a lacklustre weekend performance considering their European exploits last midweek. Having lost 1-0 to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park in October, Rangers will want revenge as they aim to close the gap that second-placed Aberdeen hold on them.
  • Kilmarnock stopped their recent rot, having lost three league games on the spin before a share of the spoils with Dundee on Saturday. Not since February 2021 had Killie lost more matches in a row in the Scottish Premiership (8). Unbeaten in five games against the Dee in Ayrshire, losing once in their last eight, they'll hope to claim a second league victory against Rangers this season.
  • Rangers haven't been overly convincing in domestic matches recently, but neither have Kilmarnock, so it could be a tight affair at Ibrox as the hosts aim to right their wrongs against the visitors.
