Rangers, Recent FormRangers will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 3-1 winners in their away fixture against Hibernian. They came away from that fixture with 68% of the possession and clocked up 20 attempts on goal with 7 on target. By comparison, Hibernian managed 14 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
Michael Beale will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 14 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have conceded8 goals during those same matches. They have scored in 34 of their 36 games this season, and of the 18 games they have played at home, they've notched up 10 clean sheets.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 7 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 20 games.
Malik Tillman will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Rangers.
Hearts, Recent FormHearts will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Aberdeen. In that game they recorded 61 % of the possession, with 30 attempts on goal, 8 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 9 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. So far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 30 of their 36 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Hearts, Lawrence Shankland will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
After a good 0-3 win for Rangers in this pair's last league encounter, Hearts will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
The Jam Tarts defence has struggled against Rangers in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 17 games. Hearts have failed score a goal in 4 of their last 5 league meetings with Rangers. When it comes to breaching the opposition defence, The Gers know how to do it against Hearts, having clocked up 16 goals against them in their previous 5 meetings. In their past 5 meetings, The Gers' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 1 goal, so Hearts will have to take their chances when they come.
Rangers will be looking to continue their winning streak against Hearts, having won each of the last 6 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 7 meetings.
Rangers player Alfredo Morelos will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Hearts, having scored 6 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
Rangers manager Michael Beale has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Borna Barišić (Unknown), Antonio Čolak (Calf), Ben Davies (Unknown), Steven Davis (Cruciate ligament), Filip Helander (Foot), Ryan Kent (Unknown), Tom Lawrence (Knee), Nnamdi Ofoborh (Heart problems), Kemar Roofe (Calf) and Malik Tillman (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Hearts have been plagued by a number of long term injury problems with Craig Gordon (Broken leg), Craig Halkett (Knee) and Gary Mackay-Steven (Foot) all being out for the rest of the season. Also unavailable for The Jam Tarts are both Beni Baningime (Cruciate ligament) and Liam Boyce (Cruciate ligament), so manager Steven Naismith will be hoping no more of his players pick up a knock in this fixture to add to his selection problems.
