Rangers are back in action this afternoon as they travel to take on Hearts.

Rangers starting line-up: McGregor; Tavernier, McAuley, Goldson, Halliday; Coulibaly, Arfield, Ejaria; Candeias, Morelos, Grezda.

Rangers substitutes: Foderingham, Worrall, Flanagan, McCrorie, Jack, Middleton, Lafferty.

The Gers drew 0-0 at home with Villarreal in the Europa League on Thursday night, and are now back to domestic action today in a big game against Hearts.

Manager Steven Gerrard has understandably made changes to his side having played on Thursday, but Allan McGregor keeps his place in goal, playing against the side who Rangers beat to signing him.

James Tavernier and Andy Halliday line up as the full backs, whilst veteran centre back Gareth McAuley comes into the heart of defence alongside Connor Goldson.

Lassana Coulibaly features in a holding midfield role, with Scott Arfield and Ovie Ejaria either side of him, relied upon to provide creativity to the front three.

Daniel Candeias starts after his red card on Thursday, with Alfredo Morelos leading the line and Eros Grezda out wide in a dangerous attacking trio.

Kyle Lafferty is only on the bench for a trip back to his former club, and is joined on the bench by Wes Foderingham, Joe Worrall, Jon Flanagan, Ross McCrorie, Ryan Jack and Glenn Middleton.
