Match preview
Rangers are seeing out the season — the team has amassed 71 points, sitting second, trailing Celtic by 17 and comfortably ahead of their nearest rival by 15. Just one win in their last seven, but they still possess one of the league’s best attacks and defences.
Dundee United are fighting for European football — with 50 points, they’re fifth, three points off a Europa Conference League qualifying spot. There are two rounds left, and their chances remain, especially considering they’ll face a direct rival in the final round. However, their form is a concern: three straight losses.
Probable lineups
- Rangers: Kelly; Tavernier, Souttar, Balogun, Jefte; Barron, Raskin; Cerny, Diomande, Dessers; Igamane
- Dundee United: Walton; Adegboiga, Gallagher, Sewell; Strain, Trapanovski, Sibbald, Ferry; Middleton; Dolby, Moult
Prediction
Rangers have nothing left to play for in the league, but their final home match of the season is the perfect opportunity to put on a show. Given Dundee’s poor current form, my recommended bet is on the hosts’ individual total over 2 goals at odds of 1.57.
