BREAKING NEWS:Rangers vs ST.Johnstone fc match has been postponed few minutes ago..
Rangers are preparing to welcome St Johnstone to Ibrox for an unorthodox 8pm kick-off in the Scottish Premiership.
The Ibrox side will be hoping to bounce back from a disappointing 4-1 humbling at the hands of Lyon on Europa League duties during the week.
The Gers had won four matches on the bounce without so much as conceding goal before the hammering at the hands of the Ligue 1 outfit.
St Johnstone have now appointed Simo Valaraki to replace Craig Levein but the Finnish manager won’t be in the dugout against Rangers this afternoon.
Here’s how we are tipping Rangers to line up on Scottish Premiership duties.

Three Rangers changes for St Johnstone clash
Jack Butland has been an ever-present for Rangers this season and we don’t expect that to change against St Johnstone.
The former England goalkeeper has been on improved form as of late and will likely start v the Saints, despite Butland appearing to criticise Philippe Clement’s tactics on Thursday evening.
There is also a huge decision to be made on Rangers captain James Tavernier, who has come in for huge criticism for his poor defensive application in the defeat to Lyon.
We suspect that Neraysho Kasanwirjo will be given the nod at right-back after the Ibrox skipper was hooked on the hour mark against the French side.
Rangers centre-back pair John Souttar and Robin Propper were being praised heading into the Lyon clash but had a poor night on Europa League duties.
We’re tipping both to retain their place with Brazilian left-back Jefte to continue at left-back.
Connor Barron has played in every game for Rangers this season but gifted Lyon the second goal in the defeat during the week.
