Steven Gerrard could look to restore the Rangers side at Ibrox.

Alfredo Morelos of Rangers celebrates after scores his third goal during the Scottish Cup 5th Round Replay between Rangers and Kilmarnock at Ibrox Stadium on February 20, 2019 in Glasgow,...

Steven Gerrard must decide whether or not to restore Alfredo Morelos to Rangers’ starting XI for Dundee’s visit to Ibrox on Wednesday.

Morelos, who has scored six goals in his last two games for Rangers, returns from a three-match ban against Jim McIntyre’s side.

The Gers failed to score in two of their games without the Colombian, but hit five without reply against Hamilton last time out.

Strikers Jermain Defoe and Kyle Lafferty were both on target against the Accies, but the urge to reinstate Morelos could prove too strong as Gerrard seeks to take advantage of the sudden unrest at Rangers’ title rivals, Celtic.

The Rangers manager is already expected to make one change from Sunday’s win, as Andy Halliday struggles with a tight groin.

Borna Barisic of Rangers looks on prior to the Ladbrookes Scottish Premiership match between Rangers and St Johnstone at Ibrox Stadium on February 16, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

That should see Borna Barisic return at left-back, with utility man Matt Polster unlikely to make his debut for the same reason as Halliday.

This is how we suspect the Gers could look against Dundee…
