Bojan Miovski January exit set as Danny Rohl confirms Rangers starting XI vs Livingston
Rangers have made four changes to their starting lineup as they face Livingston in the William Hill Premiership on Saturday.
Ibrox hosts David Martindale’s team on 22 November, with the German manager having to deal with several injury concerns.
John Souttar and Derek Cornelius’ absence means Clinton Nsiala is on the bench, with Nasser Djiga and Emmanuel Fernandez starting alongside James Tavernier and Jayden Meghoma out wide.
The former Sheffield Wednesday boss has the chance to get his fourth straight league win against Livi, but it remains to be seen whether the fitness issues in the first-team squad will affect the Glaswegian outfit’s performance.
Bojan Miovski on Rangers bench despite Youssef Chermiti absence vs Livingston
With Rohl also having to deal with the absence of Mikey Moore and Youssef Chermiti, Bojan Miovski must’ve thought he’s going to get an opportunity to start against Livingston.
However, the German manager seems to have opted for a 4-3-3 formation, with Danilo starting up front, leaving no place for the North Macedonia international in the starting lineup, and a January exit from Ibrox may not be out of the question.
Oliver Antman and Djeidi Gassama will surely provide width as the Gers will undoubtedly look to stifle Livi from the get-go.
Rohl has reignited hopes of winning the William Hill Premiership this season despite the Gers being 12 points behind Hearts, albeit with a game in hand.
The renewed anticipation in G51 stands as a testament to the work the German manager has done in a short time since replacing Russell Martin.
Danny Rohl has major advantage after Celtic crisis
The Ibrox faithful will be glad to see Celtic’s woes deepen, with their Annual General Meeting disrupted by furious fans on 21 November.
Martin O’Neil is still in interim charge of the Hoops after Brendan Rodgers’ resignation, giving Rangers an incentive to finally take advantage of the crisis at Parkhead.
Rohl has managed to turn the tide in G51, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see an upturn in form at Ibrox while Celtic continue to dip.
The 12-point gap with table-toppers Hearts surely isn’t insurmountable, but the upcoming weeks will give a better picture of where the Gers stand in the title race.
