Rangers set for confidence boost against struggling St Mirren

Ladbrokes Premiership
Sky Sports Football, 12.30pm Saturday

Cracks are beginning to appear in the Steven Gerrard express, but Rangers should still be able to steamroll struggling Saints.

A Betfred Cup semi-final defeat to Aberdeen and a dreary 1-1 home draw to Kilmarnock have seen the former Liverpool icon publicly question his players - even though he brought 15 of them in.

However, if they can't beat this St Mirren side then they really are in trouble.

Toothless up front and out of their depth under Oran Kearney, who inherited a horrific squad from Alan Stubbs, they're in serious trouble.

Rangers on the handicaps or half time-full time are options, but preference is to win to nil due to St Mirren's scoring issues.
