Nedim Bajrami axed in midfielder change – Rangers predicted XI v Ross County
Philippe Clement could look at dropping Nedim Bajrami from his Rangers starting XI in two changes for their upcoming Scottish Premiership clash against Ross County on Saturday.
The Albania international has been in and out of the Gers’ first team since he arrived at Ibrox in the summer but at the moment, it feels like Ianis Hagi is the better option of the two.
The other change that we could see from the Belgian is Leon King getting dropped for Clinton Nsiala, King was only on the pitch for 15 minutes against Union Saint-Gilloise on Thursday before he was forced off the pitch with a concussion and, with Nsiala not in their Europa League squad, he looks certain to come back in.

Jack Butland will likely be the man between the sticks after he’s been chosen for each game since his return from injury.
The defence is where we’re likely to see the first change of Clement’s team with King getting dropped for Nsiala, James Tavernier will likely move back into his natural role of right-back with Robin Propper and Jefte assuming their regular roles at centre-back and left-back.
The midfield duo will likely consist of Nico Raskin and Mohamed Diomande after the latter of the two had the red card he was handed rescinded.
On the flanks will more than likely be Vaclac Cerny and Ianis Hagi, the duo have been essential to Rangers over the last month or so and their creativity will no doubt be much needed against a tough-to-beat Ross County side.
Last but not least, leading the line will be Hamza Igamane and Cyriel Dessers. While the Nigeria international didn’t manage to get his name on the scoresheet on Thursday, his performance was second to none and it seems like the duo work well together.
