Rangers squad revealed as Amad Diallo set to lead Ibrox fringe show against Ross County

Giovanni van Bronckhorst has to strike the right balance in the final two league games of the season.

In any other circumstances, the visit of Ross County for a fixture that could see them officially lose their Scottish Premiership crown would be a bleak night at Ibrox.

But Rangers have bigger things on their mind with the Europa League final just seven days away.

That will ensure the atmosphere for a meaningless midweek clash against the Staggies might not be quite as sombre.

All the preparation is geared towards that big one in Seville and that brings its own difficulties for Van Bronckhorst.

There is the likes of Kemar Roofe who has an outside chance of playing. How many minutes does he need if he is to start in Spain and when can he get them?

Would a rest do the likes of James Tavernier and Connor Goldson, who have played so many games this season, upset their rhythm and do more harm than good?

With Ross County followed by a trip to Hearts, there are so many questions that must be swirling around Van Bronckhorst's head.

Amad Diallo came off the bench and capped a lively display with a goal in the weekend win over Dundee United and must surely be in line for a start.

Then there's youngsters such as Leon King and Alex Lowry who could also be in contention.

Aaron Ramsey needs as much game time as possible to get up to speed and it's likely Rangers will go for a mix of potential Seville starters and fringe men.
