Rangers Preview – Can Rangers push Celtic this term?
Rangers were sitting in second place in the Scottish top flight when the Premiership season was brought a halt, but found themselves 13 points adrift of their Old Firm rivals, Celtic, so this time around, Rangers will be keen to see if they can match Celtic’s output.
It’s a case of so far so good for Rangers as they’ve registered early back-to-back wins in the Premiership with victories over Aberdeen 1-0 away and a resounding 3-0 home win against St Mirren, so Steven Gerrard’s side will be in confident mood ahead of this clash at Ibrox on Wednesday night.
The hosts possess a strong record at Ibrox as they’ve lost just one of their last 13 matches at home which includes 11 wins and no fewer than nine clean sheets during this impressive sequence of results, so they’ll take some beating here I fancy.
St Johnstone Preview – Can St Johnstone produce stubborn resistance?
Wednesday’s visitors, St Johnstone, were enjoying a reasonable campaign in last season’s Premiership before the season was halted, with Callum Davidson’s side sitting in 6th place and the visitors bring a decent looking eight-match unbeaten run into this clash.
This sequence consists of three wins (Aberdeen, Motherwell and Livingston) and five draws which includes their 2-2 draw at home with Wednesday’s hosts, Rangers, towards the end of February last season, and although they’ve also lost just once in their last eight matches away from home, wins on the road have been thin on the ground.
St Johnstone have managed to pick up just three wins out of their last 23 matches on their travels and they may well struggle again this Wednesday evening at Ibrox against a quality Rangers outfit who have their tails up.
