It’s a comparatively younger squad that the Gers boast for the trip to Dumfries owing to the international involvement of several regulars.
It means Greig Thackray comes in between the posts for his first start of the season, behind a backline of Jack Wyllie, Arran Kerr, Connor Campbell and Lyle Wark.
Cameron Fernie comes into the side in midfield, while there are starts for Paul Nsio and Alex Smith.
In attack, Chris Eadie leads the line, where he is supported by captain Callum Burnside and 16-year-old Kyle Glasgow.
Among the substitutes for Rangers this afternoon is Sam Reid, Oliver Hynd, James Reid, Conor Owen, Jack Caldwell, Ashton Scally, Calum Young, Luca Rankin and Cormac Christie.
Kick-off at Palmerston Park is 3pm and you can stay up to date with the action on X @RFC_Youth.
