Pedro Caixinha is expected to make two changes to the team that beat Partick in midweek in the Scottish League Cup quarter final. 

Kenny Miller was rested for that game but is expected to come back in to partner Afredo Morelos in a strong 4-4-2 line-up.

Wes Foderingham should come back into the team to replace Jak Alnwick.

Caixinha could be forced into making two other changes with the news that Declan John and Bruno Alves are both being monitored for knocks.

If Alves is ruled out, it could mean an Old Firm debut for Ross McCrorie.

He replaced Alves on Tuesday night and put in a good performance, but it would be a huge step up and test for the 19-year-old.

Rangers are currently five points behind Celtic at the top of the table, and will be looking to stop their rival’s unbeaten domestic record.

This is the starting XI we expect Pedro Caixinha to announce ahead of the midday kick-off on Saturday.
