Rangers take on St Johnstone in their next fixture on Saturday.

Derek McInnes' side host Simo Valakari's side in the Scottish Premiership, looking to close the gap to Celtic.

They are currently four points behind after the 2-2 draw with Dundee last time out.

The Gers will be able to pile the pressure on their arch-rivals, as they do not play until Sunday after their European defeat to Celta Vigo.

That means that the gap could be just one point by the time that Martin O'Neill's side start their match.

Ibrox News shares everything that supporters need to know about the clash with the Saints.

How to watch and kick-off time for Rangers vs St Johnstone

Those not attending at Ibrox, will not be able to watch the contest live unfortunately.

The clash is set to kick-off at 3:00 pm, meaning it will not be live on television in the United Kingdom.

International subscribers can access the fixture on Rangers TV, but that is not an option for domestic fans.

Gers fans or St Johnstone supporters can follow along live on BBC Radio Scotland or their club's official social media accounts to find out what is going on, if they are not attending.

Hopefully, Ryan Naderi and co can come up with the goods, and deliver a vital three points, delighting those who can tune in.

Rangers vs St Johnstone postponement latest as Met Office issues yellow weather warning

What is the latest weather forecast for Rangers vs St Johnstone?

The weather in Govan is set to be miserable for when Valakari's side visit the capital.

When the game kicks off, it will be 11 degrees celsius, but will feel like it is nine degrees.

There may be gusty winds and heavy rain, as a result of Storm Boelo, with the Met Office issuing a yellow weather warning.

That is in place between 12:00 pm on Saturday and lasts until 9:00 pm on Sunday evening, so it is on while the game is scheduled to play out.

The match is still likely to go ahead, but supporters may have to take extra precaution and be aware of road closures and things like that as they travel to and from the ground.

Ideally, the weather won't affect McInnes' side in terms of their performance on the pitch, but that remains to be seen.
