PHILIPPE CLEMENT has named his first starting lineup as Rangers manager as he prepares to make his Ibrox bow in the Scottish Premiership against Hibernian this afternoon.
The 49-year-old Belgian was installed as the 19th permanent manager of the Gers less than seven days ago and he will be keen to make an immediate impression on the touchline.
It means Jack Butland retains his place between the posts for his eighth successive league start this campaign, providing the last line of defence behind a backline of captain James Tavernier, Connor Goldson, John Souttar and Borna Barisic.
Nicolas Raskin will anchor the midfield alongside John Lundstram, with Sam Lammers offering creativity between the lines.
Cyriel Dessers will lead the line in attack, where he is supported by an in-form Abdallah Sima and Scott Wright who returns from suspension.
Among the substitutes for the Light Blues in Govan this afternoon is Robby McCrorie, Ridvan Yilmaz, Ryan Jack, Kemar Roofe, Ben Davies, Leon Balogun and Ross McCausland, while Todd Cantwell and Danilo returns to the matchday squad.
Kick-off at Ibrox is 3pm and supporters outside of the UK can enjoy the match live on RangersTV.
