Michael Beale has given Rangers fans even more news to worry about ahead of Celtic's visit to Ibrox after confirming that defender Ben Davies is set to remain on the sidelines ahead of the crunch clash.
The Gers fended off a resilient Aberdeen side at the weekend as they battled to a tough 1-0 victory at Ibrox, with Todd Cantwell's superb volley being the difference - although Celtic's win over Hearts meant that they could no longer catch their bitter rivals to the Scottish Premiership title.
With pride at stake in the latest instalment of the Old Firm derby - of which the Hoops have won the last three - Beale will need all the help he can get from his team, which starts with a fully fit side if he is to overcome Ange Postecoglou's men for the first time in his managerial stint in Govan. But he will be without Davies, who picked up an injury in the win over Barry Robson's side last weekend, and Ryan Kent, with the Englishman remaining sidelined.
