Rangers vs Hearts LIVE as Philippe Clement mixes it up but keeps faith in under-fire Cyriel Dessers

Who knew a pair of 0-0 draws could prove a potential catalyst for change for Rangers boss Philippe Clement?

The Belgian watched his new charges weather a Europa League storm away to Sparta Prague before they almost snatched it through Danilo. And then another scoreless draw on Saturday was welcomed as champions Celtic came up short against Hibs at Easter Road.

That means Clement and Rangers can cut the arrears atop the Scottish Premiership table to five points if they see off Hearts at Ibrox. Steven Naismith was left stewing after his side's meek resistance in their 4-1 defeat to Celtic and will be hell bent on bringing a spark in Govan.

Both teams news the three points and it serves as a dress rehearsal before the teams meet at Hampden next Sunday in the Viaplay Cup semi final and the teams will be aiming for an early advantage ahead of their meeting at the national stadium.

Rangers: Butland, Tavernier, Goldson, Davies, Ridvan, Lundstram, Raskin, Cantwell, Lammers, Sima, Dessers. Subs: McCrorie, Souttar, Jack, Cifuentes, Dowell, Wright, Devine, McCausland, Danilo

Hearts: Clark, Sibbick, Kent, Rowles, Cochrane, Baningime, Nieuwenhof, Grant, Offiah, Vargas, Shankland. Subs: McGovern, Haring, Devlin, Kingsley, Boyce, Oda, Halliday, Denholm, Forrest

The stakes are high and you won't miss any of the live action with us as we bring you all the build up, match action and reaction from Ibrox.

That is a surprise in the eyes of Rangers fans who feel the pair of misfiring forwards exhausted their lifelines amid their mishaps against Prague.

Perhaps only Danilo's facial injury and the phased return is keeping both in the starting XI.

But there will be no excuses left if both fail to produce the goods against Hearts.
