One Change To Face Hamilton

STEVEN GERRARD has named one change to his starting XI for this evening’s Scottish Premiership meeting at Hamilton, with Ianis Hagi replacing Cedric Itten.

The Light Blues gaffer has stuck with the same XI who defeated Kilmarnock last week barring Romanian international Hagi coming in for Itten, the Swiss striker missing out today with a calf issue.

That means Jon McLaughlin continues between the sticks with James Tavernier, Fil Helander, Connor Goldson, Hagi, Ryan Jack, Steven Davis, Ryan Kent, Brandon Barker, Kemar Roofe and Borna Barisic in front of him.

Allan McGregor again has a place on the substitute’s bench next to Calvin Bassey, Nathan Patterson, Glen Kamara, Alfredo Morelos, Jordan Jones, Greg Stewart, Leon Balogan and Scott Arfield.

This is the Light Blues’ final match before the international break, with a significant number of the squad traveling to join up with their respective countries next week.

Prior to their departures, they’ll be looking to make it an unbeaten start to the league season with victory over an Accies side who will come into today’s meeting with confidence following a Lanarkshire Derby victory over Motherwell last weekend away from home

RANGERS: McLaughlin, Tavernier, Helander, Goldson, Hagi, Jack, Davis, Kent, Barker, Roofe, Barisic. SUBS: McGregor, Bassey, Patterson, Kamara, Morelos, Jones, Stewart, Balogun, Arfield.
