Michael Beale believes it is a pivotal week in Rangers' season as they get set for TWO big games.
The Light Blues are first in action this midweek as they face a trip to the capital to face in-form Hibs. The Ibrox men go into the clash off the back of a win over Kilmarnock after putting their League Cup Final disappointment against rivals Celtic behind them. Following the game at Easter Road, the Scottish Cup takes centre stage with the holders determined to book a return to Hampden and move one step closer to retaining the famous old trophy when they take on Raith Rovers at Ibrox.
Rangers are nine points behind Ange Postecoglou and his champions in the race for the Premiership crown with games quickly running out to make up the gap. The Old Firm pair go head to head twice more this season in the league with just 11 matches to go. The Ibrox gaffer has summed up the story of this campaign in one word as he branded it as a 'disappointment'. However, he is optimistic about the future with the talks behind the scenes all positive. He knows at Rangers there is no place to be second best and they must win silverware and the big games.
