What channel is Dundee v Rangers? TV details, live stream, team news, referee, VAR

Rangers will look to arrest a run of three William Hill Premiership away matches without a victory when they travel to Dundee on Thursday night.

Philippe Clement’s side have struggled on their travels all season but particularly so over the festive period after following a 2-1 defeat to St Mirren on Boxing Day with a 2-2 draw at Motherwell in the final fixture of 2024.

A 3-0 home victory over Celtic in the new year Old Firm derby at Ibrox raised spirits only for Rangers to drop points again after losing a two-goal lead to draw 3-3 with Hibs at Easter Road on Sunday and fall 13 points behind at the top of the table.

Rangers have matched Celtic’s home record this season with 28 points from 10 matches but away from home, they have collected just 12 points from the same number of matches compared to Celtic’s 25, with third-placed Dundee United also outperforming them on the road.

Clement and Rangers need a victory at Dens Park to reduce the gap back to 13 points after Celtic opened up a 16-point gap with a 2-0 home win over Dundee United on Wednesday.
