Antonio Colak should be back fit for Rangers’ Premiership clash with Motherwell, putting him in contention to face Celtic on January 2.
The Gers’ top scorer has been sidelined with a calf strain and missed Michael Beale’s first two matches in charge as the Light Blues came from behind in both, beating Hibs 3-2 at Ibrox before Tuesday night’s stunning stoppage time comeback away to Aberdeen to win by the same scoreline on a dramatic night in the north east.
With Colak injured, Alfredo Morelos led the line and netted the winner against the Hibees. He wasn't on target at Pittodrie, but is set to continue up top when Rangers make the long journey north to take on Ross County on Friday night. The meeting with the Staggies will come too soon for Colak, but Beale expects him to be available for Motherwell’s trip to Ibrox between Christmas and New Year.
