Rangers are busy preparing for their latest Scottish Premiership fixture against Dundee.

Derek McInnes head east to Dens Park on Saturday evening, as they look to continue their fabulous run.

Currently, the Gers are on a seven-match winning streak in all competitions, keeping five clean sheets on the way.

They won't have it all their own way, though, with Steven Pressley's men sitting fourth and way above expectations.

Rangers have all focus on domestic matters this season, with no European football possibly helping that mission.

Ibrox News has all you need to know to watch the Dens Park showdown, and what to expect if you're travelling there, too.

How can I watch Dundee vs Rangers?

In no surprise to anybody, this is one of several fixtures re-arranged for the Light Blues in the coming months.

This is the first of two upcoming fixtures to take the 8pm kick-off slot on Saturdays, this time on 17 October.

Rangers, or Dundee fans, can take in the action live on Sky Sports.

It will be shown on their Main Event, Football and Ultra HDR channels.

Live coverage will start beforehand, with all the build-up, analysis and post-match reaction all included.

What's the weather expected in Dundee?

With the Met Office showing yellow weather warnings approaching the top of Scotland, winter is slowly on its way.

The warnings are for winds, but aren't expected to hit lower Scotland, Glasgow or Dundee ahead of this fixture.

Instead, it should be dry, with sun for most of the day before kick-off and a lower than five per cent chance of rain at Dens Park.

Winds shouldn't pass 10mph either, making it perfect conditions for this Scottish Premiership fixture.

Rangers have shown their ability to play slick and fast football on the deck, while being able to go long to Ryan Naderi and Kevin Kelsy.

So, whatever is thrown at them on Saturday, they should be able to cope.

Rangers have won four of their last six against Dundee, with the other two draws, with the last game at Dens Park finishing 3-0 to the Bears.

McInnes will be hoping for similar success in his latest trip east.
