Glasgow Rangers and Dundee go head-to-head this week but how will the Gers line up?

Rangers manager Graeme Murty is seen during the Scottish Cup Quarter final match between Rangers and Hamilton Academical at Ibrox Stadium on March 4, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers travel to Dens Park to take on Dundee in their latest Scottish Premiership clash this week and the Gers will be hoping to get back to winning ways after losing 2-0 to Hamilton Academical last time out.

Interim manager Graeme Murty remains in charge but he will want to ensure that his last match at the helm, whenever that may be, is a victory to leave the club in good shape for Pedro Caixinha’s permanent successor.

Rangers defender Bruno Alves continues to be a doubt after sitting out last weekend’s game with a back injury while Lee Wallace and Graham Dorrans remain side-lined.

A bruised foot means Lee Hodson is a minor doubt but Rangers fans may not be complaining about that after the full-back’s horror show last time out, especially with Declan John expected to return following a bout of flu.

Rangers are currently fourth in the Scottish Premiership with 24 points from 13 matches, but with league leaders and reigning champions Celtic a full nine points clear of their fierce rivals, something needs to change quickly at Ibrox.

With all that in mind here is how we expect Rangers to line up against Dundee later this week:
