Rangers XI vs Dundee FC – Predicted Lineup and Team News
Rangers travel to Dens Park this Sunday to face Dundee FC in the Scottish Premiership, looking to recover after back-to-back losses. Manager Danny Rohl has brought a modest improvement since taking over from Russell Martin, guiding Rangers to two league wins which have lifted them to fourth place.
However, Rohl’s record also includes three defeats across all competitions, notably a disappointing loss to Celtic in the League Cup semi-finals.
Dundee's Recent Form
Dundee have slipped after a strong performance that shocked Celtic with a 2-0 home victory last month, suffering defeats in their last two Premiership matches.
Injury and Suspension News
- Dujon Sterling will miss out due to a persistent Achilles issue ongoing since April.
- Rabbi Matondo is sidelined with a long-term knee problem.
- Kieran Dowell remains unavailable due to injury.
- Connor Barron returns to midfield after serving a suspension from a red card received in the Premier Sports Cup semi-final against Celtic.
Barron’s comeback offers Rohl more options as Rangers aim to build on recent league successes.
Team Selection Considerations
After Thursday’s 2-0 Europa League loss to AS Roma, where Rangers struggled for rhythm, Rohl may decide to adjust the starting lineup to improve performance.
"Danny Rohl has overseen a slight improvement in form since replacing Russell Martin in the dugout, taking them up to fourth place in the table with two wins from his first two league games in charge."
"Following Thursday’s 2-0 defeat to AS Roma in the Europa League — a contest in which the Gers struggled to find momentum — Rohl may well reshuffle his starting eleven."
Summary: Rangers aim to rebound at Dundee despite injuries and recent defeats, with manager Danny Rohl balancing squad challenges and tactical changes ahead.
