Rangers vs Tottenham prediction
The form guide points to a home win. Rangers are on a good run at the moment, while Spurs are not.
However, it wouldn't be a surprise if the north London outfit turned up for the big occasion, just like they have done against both Manchester clubs so far this season.
By no means is it a must-win game for Tottenham but there's a good chance they stop the rot.
Tottenham to win, 3-1.
