Jamie Carragher predicts something to happen to Rangers for 17th time in a row in Hibs clash
Rangers return to Scottish Premiership action in an away clash against Hibernian on Wednesday night.
Danny Rohl earned his first victory as manager in Rangers’ 3-0 win over Kilmarnock at Ibrox last weekend.
The feat means that Rohl has equalled the number of Premiership wins under Russell Martin despite replacing him at Ibrox just last week.
With this in mind, the 36-year-old will be hoping to extend his winning record with the Gers on Wednesday.
Jamie Carragher predicts Rangers to draw 1-1 vs Hibernian
Rangers take on Hibernian at Easter Road on 29 October in a game that promises end-to-end action.
Indeed, with Hibernian and Rangers third and fifth in the table respectively, both teams will be looking to claim all three points when they meet.
However, Jamie Carragher has predicted a 1-1 draw for the two sides via Sky Sports Super 6.
If the pundit is correct, the Gers would’ve extended a long-standing streak by the time the final whistle is blown.
Rangers have both scored and conceded in each of their last 16 away league games. This is their longest such run since doing so 22 times in a row from January 1895 to September 1897.
During this period, the Gers have netted 35 goals, conceded 27 and have won six, drawn nine and have been defeated once.
While there is a certain appeal to extending such a unique record, given their current league predicament, Rangers would likely take a win any day of the week.
How have Hibernian performed at home this season?
Hibernian have played four times at home in the Scottish Premiership this season, drawing three times and winning once.
- Hibs have collected six points at home
- Rangers have drawn three and won once away this season
Given the stats, a draw on Wednesday seems to be the likely outcome of this confrontation.
Rangers have drawn six times this season, and so another one will not impress fans. However, as Rohl has only arrived at Ibrox, an unbeaten record in the Premiership for his first two games is hard to argue against.
Therefore, while the result of Rangers’ clash against Hibernian remains to be seen, a draw may not be too shabby an outcome.
