What channel is Rangers v Dundee United on? Premiership match info, TV details, kick-off time, team news

Rangers turn their attention from Champions League football to domestic action as they welcome Dundee United to Ibrox.

The Premiership returns this weekend following the postponement of a round of fixtures as a mark of respect following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

Rangers come into the match having lost three on the bounce, conceding 11 and failing to score. There was a better display, however, in the 3-0 home loss to Napoli during the week.

Meanwhile, Dundee United currently prop up the Premiership with just two draws from six. They’ve only scored twice but conceded 18, including nine in that shellacking by Celtic.

Liam Fox remains in interim charge after the departure of Jack Ross and has spoken to the club’s sporting director Tony Asghar.

He said: “I had a conversation with Tony at the start of the week and it was just: carry on doing what you are doing, preparing the team. That was as far as the conversation went.”
