Rangers will turn their attention to the Scottish Cup this weekend as they look to avoid an upset against Queen’s Park at Ibrox in the fifth round this Sunday (kick-off: 2pm).
Having moved to within three points of league leaders Hearts with a 5-1 thumping of Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday night, Danny Rohl’s men will now look to avenge last season’s shock cup defeat to the Spiders in Govan and progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.
Their visitors, Queen’s Park, currently occupy the bottom spot in the Scottish Championship after losing 1-0 to Ross County in midweek. However, they will take confidence from their memorable victory against Rangers in the Scottish Cup almost exactly a year ago, where Seb Drozd handed them a shock 1-0 win in Govan.
