Philippe Clement has eased some pressure on his shoulders by sensationally leading Rangers into the Europa League last 16.
Gers were given just a 10 per cent chance of sneaking into the top eight before facing USG on Thursday night. But a 2-1 win combined with five favourable results from elsewhere saw them bypass the playoff round during a dramatic final night of the league phase.
And Clement will hope to keep the feel-good factor alive by recording what should be a routine victory over Ross County. The Light Blues have been formidable at home this season but their away form has cost them dearly in the league, with just four wins from 12. That’s seen them slide 10 points behind runaway leaders Celtic and with a mounting injury crisis, Rangers really are down to the bare bones.
However, the demanding Ibrox crowd won’t accept any excuses this weekend as the 10th-placed Staggies make the long trip from Dingwall. Here, Record Sport tells you everything you need to know ahead of the Scottish Premiership encounter.
