Rangers handed boost for clash v Dundee United – report
Rangers have been handed a boost ahead of their Scottish Premiership clash with Dundee United tomorrow (February 20).
As reported by The Courier, duo Peter Pawlett and Adrian Sporle have been ruled out of the match through injury, with Kieran Freeman having a 50/50 chance of making the squad.
The Gers will be looking to get revenge on Dundee having lost at Tannadice at the start of the season.
A task that may prove difficult for Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men with the Terrors unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions.
Focus
Often you see teams fall short after enjoying such a positive result last time out which is why the Bears have to remain completely focused ahead of this game.
Their confidence will be sky high after dismantling German giants Borussia Dortmund in the manner they did last week but so is Dundee’s.
They haven’t lost in their last four matches in all competitions but more impressively they haven’t even conceded a single goal in that run.
This is set to be a very different encounter to the Gers’ luxurious Europa League knockout tie in the Signal Iduna Park; one that poses completely new threats to consider for van Bronckhorst.
The embarrassment of the Old Firm seems to be forgotten from a Rangers perspective but one thing from that game must be remembered, they can’t afford to drop any more points.
It is going to be a relentless fight till the death for the title and the Bears have to get themselves back on track tomorrow.
