There aren’t many games that seem harder on paper than the away trip to Tynecastle.
But Rangers had recently beaten Hearts rather handily, and they haven’t lost in Gorgie since shortly before Covid’s 2020 attack. Although Philippe Clement has defeated the Jambos in their last two games at Ibrox and Hampden, Steven Naismith will be driven to alter that.
The Belgian has started his time in Scotland undefeated and understands that if the Gers are to catch up to Celtic, who have played one more game, they cannot afford too many mistakes. Although Clement seems to have a group he can rely on, he might make a few adjustments for this evening’s trip to the
Jack Butland
The former England international, who is without a doubt Rangers’ top player, will start in goal tonight as usual.
James Tavernier
The captain is practically unstoppable, and it makes sense given how frequently he has come through for the Rangers when it counts.
Connor Goldson
Goldson is definitely a more dependable rearguard for the Ibrox, and he will start again tonight.
Leon Balogun
Under Michael Beale, Balogun hardly appeared; but, since Clement took over, he has become a regular.
Borna Barisic
Although the Croatian is wearing the jersey for the time being, Clement will undoubtedly try to improve left-back next month. Barisic has to face some fierce competition because Ridvan Yilmaz has been declared surplus to requirements.
