Rangers have turned their season around after a shaky start, bouncing back under Philippe Clement’s leadership. They have lost just once in their last 12 league matches, keeping their title hopes alive despite trailing Celtic.
With an unbeaten record in their last eight domestic games, the Gers will be confident of extending their dominance over Ross County at Ibrox.
Ross County, meanwhile, have struggled for consistency and find themselves just one point above the relegation playoff spot.
A brief resurgence in December and January saw them collect three wins and a draw, but back-to-back losses have put them back under pressure. The Staggies have never won at Ibrox, and they’ll need a massive performance to change that.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Rangers vs. Ross County lineups, team news
Rangers will have to navigate this one without Dujon Sterling and Neraysho Kasanwirjo, both sidelined for a few weeks. Leon Balogun and Leon King are also doubtful, adding to Philippe Clement’s selection headache.
Meanwhile, Mohammed Diomande will serve a suspension after his late red card against Dundee United. On the attacking front, Hamza Igamane and Cyriel Dessers have struck up a solid partnership and are expected to lead the line again.
Rangers predicted XI (4-2-3-1 right to left): Butland (GK) — Tavernier, Propper, Nsiala, Jefte — Raskin, Bajrami — Cerny, Hagi, Igamane — Dessers.
