Rangers vs Dundee

, KO: 19:30 May 14, 2024, Ibrox
Dundee

RANGERS face Dundee on Tuesday and it could be the flattest night at Ibrox for a long time.

Philippe Clement's men all but conceded the title on Saturday with yet another Old Firm failure and indeed, anything other than a win will officially hand Celtic their 54th title without them even kicking a ball. As it is, they are six points behind and seven goals worse off with two games left to play so of course, it's all over.

Rangers fans were far from happy at another curious team selection from their Belgian manager, basic tactics and a questionable mentality from his players again and for the first time since his arrival, his methods have been tested. Although to be fair, he could hardly legislate for John Lundstram's moment of insanity that saw him sent off.

And there could be plenty of toxicity swirling around in the Ibrox stands for what is their final home game of the season.

Dundee crashed to a tame defeat at Hearts and are five points behind St Mirren in fifth with two games left. Their European dreams look dead and buried.

How the bookies view it: A walk in the Ibrox Park for Rangers

Rangers are a very short 1/10 to win this and Dundee are 20/1 underdogs with even the draw 8/1.

Dundee are 6/1 on the double chance market, all with bet365.

Recent head to head: Dundee's Ibrox hoodoo

Dundee put a serious dent in Rangers' title ambitions last month by holding them to a goalless draw at Dens Park which they could easily have won.

But Rangers have won the last 16 games between the sides at Ibrox and Dundee haven't won against them at Ibrox since Claudio Caniggia netted in a 2-0 win in 2001.

Players to watch: Dessers the man again

Cyriel Dessers has had his fair share of critics but he is ending the season strongly and nodded in his 22nd goal of the season at Parkhead. The Nigerian international is 10/11 to score with bet365.

Michael Mellon got a start for Dundee at Tynecastle in their 3-0 defeat and the on-loan Burnley striker is 11/2 to score anytime with bet365.

Probable line-ups:

Rangers are struggling for central defenders with John Souttar injured at Parkhead and Connor Goldson out for the season with Leon Balogun also a doubt. John Lundstram is suspended.

Defenders Owen Beck and Joe Shaughnessy will miss Dundee's remaining games this season.

RANGERS: Butland, Tavernier, Sterling, Davies, Barisic, Diomande, Cantwell, Lawrence, Raskin, Dessers, Silva.

DUNDEE: McCracken, Donnelly, Astley, McGhee, Portales, Dodgson, Cameron, Boateng, McCowan, Mellon, Bakayoko.

Anything else catch the eye? Rangers should win with pressure off

Rangers should clearly win this, but it won't appease an unhappy fan base and there's likely to be plenty of groans around the ground unless it's a convincing victory.

Technically, they have to win this by a few goals to offer themselves a glimmer of hope if Celtic slip up at Kilmarnock on Wednesday, but any win will do.

Dundee like to attack and will fancy their chances of at least scoring with a makeshift Rangers central defence. Back a Rangers win and both teams to score at 13/8 with bet365.

Rangers have no pressure here really and there should be goals here, Back a home win and over 3.5 goals at 20/21.
