The midfielder missed the decisive spot-kick in the 5-4 shootout defeat to Frankfurt as the Bundesliga side won the Europa League.

The Wales international climbed off the bench deep into extra-time with penalties in mind, but Kevin Trapp stopped his effort.

Fellow sub Kemar Roofe - who won his fitness battle to be included in the squad - is also among the substitutes for the Light Blues.

Jon McLaughlin as expected is the man in the nets, with Allan McGregor on the bench.

The Ibrox side go with skipper James Tavernier and Calvin Bassey in the full-back positions with Leon Balogun joining Connor Goldson, for what is looking increasingly likely to be his final game for Rangers, in the heart of defence.

John Lundstram, Davis and Arfield make up the midfield three with Joe Aribo and Ryan Kent joined by Diallo in the attacking third.

Rangers will be hoping to bring down the curtain on their season with silverware as they bid to bounce back from Wednesday night.

RANGERS: McLaughlin, Tavernier, Goldson, Balogun, Bassey, Lundstram, Davis, Arfield, Diallo, Kent, Aribo.

Subs: McGregor, King, Jack, Ramsey, Kamara, Sands, Lowry, Itten, Wright, Roofe, Sakala
