What channel is Rangers v Ross County? TV and live stream details, team news, referee, VAR

Rangers host Ross County at Hampden on Saturday in what could be their final match at the national stadium before returning to Ibrox.

Philippe Clement’s side have taken up temporary residency in Mount Florida since the start of the season due to delayed stadium works at their traditional Govan home. However, reports this week indicate that Rangers are aiming to be back at Ibrox earlier than expected, in time for their next home match against Dundee on September 21.

The final consignment of delayed steel shipment has arrived with work on the cantilever project on the Copland Stand now proceeding at full pace. It will be for Glasgow City Council to decide whether a completion certificate can be granted for the multi-million pound upgrade to the stadium’s disabled facilities that will allow Rangers to return to home.

Saturday’s William Hill Premiership match will be the fourth Rangers have hosted at Hampden with a league win over Motherwell and a Premier Sports Cup victory against Motherwell either side of a Champions League third qualifying defeat to Dynamo Kyiv.

Ross County will be looking to bounce back from an embarrassing Premier Sports Cup exit at The Spartans last weekend after an unbeaten start to the league season that saw them claim back-to-back draws against Motherwell and Dundee United.
