Team News
St. Johnstone
Rangers
- St Johnstone boss Simo Valakari named four changes to the Saints side that lost 2-1 to Motherwell at Fir Park before the international break, before they bounced back with a sole goal success against Kilmarnock in Perth on Saturday.
- Two changes in the back four both came on the left-hand side as Andre Raymond replaced Barry Douglas at left-back and Bozo Mikulic took Kyle Cameron's place at centre-back. They joined Jack Sanders and Drey Wright in defence.
- Graham Carey, Sven Sprangler and Jason Holt remained as the midfield trio with Matt Smith making way. Nicky Clark supported a strike duo of Benji Kimpioka - in for Adama Sidibeh - and the incoming weekend matchwinner Makenzie Kirk.
- Rangers boss Philippe Clement made just one change despite the Gers being held at home in a 1-1 draw with Dundee United at the weekend, before they clinched an emphatic victory in France with a 4-1 win against Nice on Thursday night.
- Jack Butland continued in goal behind an unchanged back four of Dujon Sterling, John Souttar, Robin Pröpper and Jefte. Connor Barron and Nico Raskin sat in front of the Gers backline, with Mohamed Diomande in front of them.
- Nedim Bajrami and Vaclav Cerny supported Hamza Igamane, making his first European start for the club on the French Riviera, who bagged a brace as Rangers essentially sealed their spot in the knockout stages of the Europa League.
