Rangers welcome bottom of the table Livingston to Ibrox in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday.

Anything other than a comfortable home victory would be a surprise given where Livingston currently find themselves. David Martindale's side have failed to win any of their last 15 league matches and are six points adrift at the foot of the table, having played two games more than second bottom Ross County.

While Livi are stuck in the relegation mire, Rangers are firmly in the title mix, sitting five points behind Celtic at the top of the standings with a game in hand. They have won all but one of their league outings since the appointment of Philippe Clement in October, with their solitary defeat coming at Celtic Park.

Livingston came from behind twice to draw 2-2 with the Staggies at the Tony Macaroni Arena on Tuesday night while Rangers’ last match saw them struggle to a 1-0 win over St Mirren in Paisley last weekend.

Rangers have already claimed two 4-0 home wins over Livingston this season – firstly in the Premiership in August and then in the League Cup quarter-final in September – while November’s meeting in West Lothian ended in a 2-0 win for the Glasgow side.
