What TV channel is Dundee vs Rangers? Live stream, ref, VAR and team news for vital Premiership clash
Dundee will be determined to heap more misery on Rangers' travelling support in Tayside.
Tony Docherty's men haven't defeated the Ibrox club since 2017, but will be licking their lips at the prospect of welcoming them to Dens Park - with Philippe Clement watching his side win just three of their 10 away matches so far in the Premiership this season. And that woeful run of form continued as they let slip a two goal lead to be held by Hibs on Sunday, despite Hamza Igamane netting a perfect hat-trick. Victory for Dundee could move them into the top half of the table, and further clear of the relegation play-off places - and they will be high on confidence after breezing beyond rock bottom St Johnstone in their last outing.
Rangers meanwhile know that any further slip-ups will see the pressure mount further on boss Clement, with an inconsistent campaign perfectly highlighted by their current run of just one win in their last four outings - a comprehensive 3-0 victory against Celtic at Ibrox. In Igamane they look to have finally found the answer to their problems in front of goal; but now face a defensive crisis - and will be without stand-in captain Nicolas Raskin, key in the Old Firm success, who is suspended.
