Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers have Alfredo Morelos available tomorrow.

Steve Clarke has acknowledged to The Record that Rangers hitman Alfredo Morelos is a serious ‘threat’ to his troops on Wednesday.

Kilmarnock visit Rangers in a Scottish Cup replay at Ibrox tomorrow night.

The Gers have Morelos available again after he missed their last two games through suspension.

The Colombian marksman has netted over 20 goals for Rangers in all competitions this season, and Clarke concedes that the ‘terrific’ South American is a danger to his side.

He told The Record: “I think Steven will be happy that he’s got Morelos available for this game. He’s a terrific player, he’s definitely a threat.”

Clarke, whose Killie side drew 0-0 with the Blues in the original tie, certainly knows how to organise a defence to combat Scotland’s elite.

Morelos’s return is a big boost for the hosts, but the Scottish manager, whose side were undone by a last-minute goal from Celtic at the weekend, will have a gameplan to combat the Rangers striker and time will tell whether it’s effective.
