Rangers head to Tannadice today in what is another must win game if they want to catch Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
Anything but three points against Liam Fox's Dundee United side could be the end of the title race for Michael Beale's men, who trail the Parkhead club by 12 points heading into the crunch match on Tayside. The new Gers boss will still be without Steven Davis, Ianis Hagi, Tom Lawrence, Ridvan Yilmaz, Filip Helander and John Souttar for the trip north.
However Beale did receive some good news earlier this week with Souttar returning to training after a lengthy delay on the sidelines. He also revealed that midfielder John Lundstram had been playing and training with pain killing injections. Although Rangers could keep the same side that started against Celtic Lundstram could be rested for the semi-final against Aberdeen on Sunday.
