Gerrard said: “The whole team has a short preparation time, Alfredo arrived yesterday afternoon and he is looking fine. We still have to sit down and assess all the players returning from the International break.”

The Rangers boss also offered an update on midfielders Joe Aribo and Bongani Zungu, plus forward Kemar Roofe.

"Bongani Zungu is currently in quarantine so we sadly won't see him for another 10 days or so. We have sorted him with gym equipment so he can train from home,” added Gerrard.

"Joe Aribo and Roofe are really close but this game may be a little bit too soon for them to return.”
