What channel is St Mirren v Rangers? TV and live stream details, team news, referee and VAR

Rangers have made a rocky start to their domestic campaign under the former Southampton boss, drawing their opening two Premiership fixtures against Motherwell and Dundee to sit four points behind Celtic in the early standings.

Question marks were also raised over the performance in the 4-2 win over League One part-timers Alloa in the Premier Sports Cup last weekend, while the 3-1 defeat to Club Brugge in the Champions League play-off first leg in midweek led some fans to walk out after Rangers fell three goals behind inside 20 minutes.

Martin could do with a positive result and performance in Paisley as he attempts to win over his doubters ahead of a defining week, with the second leg against Brugge to come on Wednesday before the first Old Firm derby of the season brings Celtic to Ibrox next weekend.

St Mirren will have other ideas as they also look to secure a first league win of the campaign after an opening day 1-0 defeat at Celtic Park was followed by a goalless draw at home to Motherwell. The Saints are on a high, however, after reaching the Premier Sports Cup quarter-finals with a penalty shoot-out win over Hearts last weekend.

Rangers remain odds-on favourites to win in Paisley on Sunday but with three top-six finishes behind them, a St Mirren victory would not be the major shock it was formerly viewed as.
