Rangers XI vs Falkirk – Predicted lineup and team news

Rangers are aiming to string together consecutive victories in the Scottish Premiership as they head to Falkirk for a Wednesday night fixture.

Currently sitting seventh in the table with four points, Rangers have displayed inconsistent performances across their various competitions. Their league record so far stands at one win, one draw, and one loss, with their most recent result being a gritty 1-0 triumph against Aberdeen. That domestic upturn comes after a painful exit from Europe, where they were eliminated from the UEFA Conference League play-offs by Czech outfit FK Jablonec in a penalty shoot-out.

The Gers arrive in better physical condition overall, although manager Derek McInnes still has to contend with several long-term absentees and off-field complications.

Forward Youssef Chermiti continues to be unavailable as he works his way back from a severe cruciate ligament injury.

Left-back Tuur Rommens is also expected to be sidelined for several weeks because of an ongoing groin issue, while midfielder Jose Cifuentes remains out after undergoing a recent operation.

In addition, Nico Raskin is likely to be absent once more, having been omitted from the previous two match squads amid swirling transfer rumours.

There will also be a notable shift on the sidelines, with McInnes serving the first of a two-game touchline suspension.

Assistant boss Steven MacLean will assume responsibility in the technical area, tasked with steering a solid group of available players, including several key figures poised to start.
