St Mirren vs Rangers LIVE score team news and build-up ahead of the Premiership clash

It was a super Saturday in the Scottish Premiership but none of the results suited the two teams in action today.

St Mirren's hopes of a top six place were ended by other results while Rangers fell nine points behind leaders Celtic after the leaders romped to victory at home to St Johnstone.

And both sides desperately need the win in Paisley with the Ibrox side looking to cut the gap at the top to keep their slim title hopes alive while Stephen Robinson's side are looking to ease any relegation worries.

Both sides go into the match in poor form with St Mirren having lost their last three in a row and Gers suffering back to back losses.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst saw his side lose the Old Firm derby at Ibrox seven days ago and followed that up with defeat in the first leg of their Europa League quarter final clash against Braga.

The Dutchman will be hoping to restore confidence ahead of the return leg against the Portuguese outfit.

The Celtic legend - speaking in the Sunday Post - believes - there's still plenty to get excited about despite a week to forget for Rangers.

Rangers went from there to Portugal to play Braga in the last-eight of the Europa League.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men lost 1-0 and they will be disappointed with that scoreline. However, it still gives them an excellent chance of progressing.

The second leg is at Ibrox this midweek and there will be 50,000 Gers fans inside the stadium.

They can help to make an intimidating atmosphere for the Portuguese side and there is no way you can rule Rangers out.

They most certainly have it in them to win this tie and progress to the semi-finals.

I believe they will do
