Philippe Clement may look to make changes from the Rangers v Celtic game when his side takes on Dundee in the SPFL on 10 April.

Gers secured a 3-3 draw and now hold the fate of the title in their own hands, but there were aspects of that display that were worrying.

Dujon Sterling started at left-back with Borna Barisic on the bench as Ridvan Yilmaz did not pass a late fitness test, but the Turk should be back for this one and will be named in the eleven if that is the case.

Yilmaz will offer an offensive threat for Rangers

When fit, he's the best left-back for Clement and there's a good chance of him being available for this one.

He has turned things around and with him in the side, Gers look more lethal going forward and he's not one to shy away from his defensive duties either.

John Lundstram and Mohamed Diomande appear to have formed an understanding in midfield and that's unlikely to be changed.

Three more changes in the final third for Rangers

Abdallah Sima and Rabbi Matondo both started the Old Firm from the bench and were brought on in the second half by Clement.

Scott Wright and Fabio Silva, the January signing were handed starts and they failed to offer anything in the final third.

While Matondo found the back of the net with an absolute beauty in stoppage time and grabbed the headlines deservedly, Sima's goal was also crucial in swinging the tide back in the home side's favour.

There is no reason for both not to start this game and Matondo may even be tried on the right and could interchange positions with Sima during the game.

Todd Cantwell also appears ready to start a game and probably play the full 90 minutes so he's expected to start ahead of Tom Lawrence.
