Team News

Rangers
Hibernian
  • Rangers boss Philippe Clement made two changes from the Gers booking their place in the Scottish League Cup semi-finals with a 3-0 victory over Dundee at Ibrox, before they won 2-0 away to Swedish side Malmo in the Europa League.
  • Jack Butland continued in goal behind a back four of James Tavernier, John Souttar, Robin Pröpper and Neraysho Kasanwirjo who made his first Rangers start at left back as Jefte made way.
  • Mohamed Diomande replaced Dujon Sterling in midfield, to accompany Connor Barron and Tom Lawrence. Nedim Bajrami and Vaclav Cerny supported lone striker Cyriel Dessers in Sweden.
  • Hibernian manager David Gray made three changes from the Hibees conceding a late leveller at Rugby Park against Kilmarnock before the international break, as they bounced back with a 2-0 win over St Johnstone at Easter Road a fortnight ago.
  • Lewis Miller was away on international duty with Australia, so Chris Cadden took his place at right-back to join Marvin Ekpiteta, stand-in skipper Warren O'Hora and Jordan Obita in the back four.
  • Joe Newell missed out through injury, as Nicky Cadden took his place in midfield. Martin Boyle was also part of the Socceroos squad so didn't start, but came off the bench to score against Saints, as Élie Youan took his place in the starting eleven.

Prediction

  • Rangers and Hibernian meet at Ibrox in Sunday's sole Scottish Premiership fixture, with the added controversy of the away ticket fiasco for Hibs fans heading to Glasgow.
  • The Gers were busy on the continent in midweek, kicking off their Europa League campaign with a pretty much perfect start of a 2-0 success in Sweden over Malmo. After booking their place in the Scottish League Cup semi-final, where they face Motherwell at Hampden in November, their only domestic disappointments have come against Celtic and Hearts in Edinburgh on the opening day.
  • Hibernian head west having clinched their first Scottish Premiership victory of the season, over St Johnstone at Easter Road, but will have to guard against a potential rustiness as their hosts will have played three matches since the win against Saints. The Hibees hadn't won back-to-back meetings with St Johnstone since July 2022, but it's even longer than that since Hibs last beat Rangers.
  • The Gers have won their last seven matches against Hibernian in all competitions so, despite their Scandinavian success on Thursday night, should make it eight straight victories against Hibs this weekend.
