On Sunday, at 12:00, Glasgow Rangers go to Rugby Park for the duel with Kilmarnock, from the 13th stage of the Scottish championship. Without Katic, who has been injured for a long time, Rangers is the big favorite against a team that has held Celtic’s side this season.
Rangers has a dream start to the season and has already put 6 points between her and Celtic. After 12 stages, such an advance still seems small, especially since the white-greens also have a backlog to play. Kilmarnock is a mid-table team in Scotland, with four wins and five defeats this season. With a goal difference of 28-3, Steven Gerrard’s team promises a good new match at Kilmarnock, where we do not expect Ianis Hagi to be part of the midfield of the guests.
Rangers comes after an important result in the Europa League, a 1-0 at home with Lech Poznan. Without a goal in five games, the white-blues scored decisively through Morelos and achieved a success that brings them very close to qualifying. At the same time, Celtic were making a precious 2-2 in France, with Lille. Glasgow Rangers have 9 successes and a draw in the last 10 official matches, in which they faced difficult opponents (including the derby with Celtic). Last stage, the band from Ibrox did not talk to Livingston 2-0, and now they will storm Kilmarnock’s goal, from the start.
In the previous round, Kilmarnock lost to Hibernian, score 0-1, the third goalless defeat scored in the last four matches! With only one shot on goal in front of Hibs, the weekend guests do not have high hopes for a surprise, being defeated in the previous two visits on Rangers’ field. The Glasgow team won 2-0 and 1-0, but between these results a 1-2 score slipped on Rugby Park, where we will bet on an unbalanced game. Corner bets could be inspired here, if Rangers’ dominance did not materialize on the table.
