When Rangers play Dundee in the SPFL on April 17, Philippe Clement will be seeking to make changes to his team.

The match, which was twice postponed, is now set to go place at Dens Park once more. In the event of unfavorable weather or pitch conditions, a backup plan will be implemented.

Gers are on the back of a 3-2 defeat against Ross County and will quickly want to get back to winning ways as they failed to beat Celtic as well.

Dujon Sterling to return to the Rangers XI?

Sterling started for Gers in the 3-3 draw against Celtic in the Old Firm derby and did not seem out of place or not up for the task.

He was then dropped for the exit-linked Borna Barisic for the Ross County clash and this change could very well be on the cards.

The rest of the defence picks itself but there’s got to be a better defensive showing from James Tavernier, Connor Goldson and John Souttar.

Tom Lawrence to start for Rangers

In midfield, Kieran Dowell started over the weekend and there’s a chance Clement looks to go more attacking for this one.

This could mean Tom Lawrence coming into the side and giving the side much-needed movement in the middle of the park.

Rabbi Matondo, the goal-scoring hero in the Old Firm derby did not start against Ross County and could come in for Fabio Silva.

Silva has disappointed recently in front of goal so it makes sense to get the Wales international in for him.
