Buoyant Dundee are also a side familiar with dispatching their local rivals.
The Dees were cruising by three goals at half time against wayward St Johnstone as the 3-1 Tayside derby win plunged the Perth side further into relegation turmoil. Rangers will feel their 3-0 win over Celtic, however, was a long time ago now after they came crashing back down to earth with a 3-3 thriller at Hibs.
Tony Docherty’s men are hoping to finally give their fans something to cheer when up against the Light Blues. Dundee have not beaten Rangers in the league in almost EIGHT years. Philippe Clement will be desperate for that run to continue but Gers’ away form has been their Achilles heel all season.
