Bullish Philippe Clement insists Rangers are not "running around like zombies" as he tackled negativity around the club going into their return to Ibrox.

The Light Blues will return to home turf this weekend as they kick-off their defence of the Premier Sports Cup against Dundee having spent the opening weeks of the season at Hampden Park amid delays in construction work on the Copland Road Stand.

The win over Dundee United last weekend in the Scottish Premiership got Rangers back on track after a difficult start to the campaign - with temperatures reaching boiling point on the steps of Ibrox with fans confronting the players and boss after defeat to Celtic.

But Clement insists the win at Tannadice was the remedy the club needed after their lacklustre showing on derby day. Speaking before the visit of Tony Docherty's side, he was asked if the club needed a lift as they prepare to return to Govan.
