In the Scottish’s midday kickoff on Saturday, Rangers will travel to Paisley to face struggling St Mirren. Philippe Clement’s team hopes to cut the deficit against Celtic to just two points.

Midweek, the Ibrox team returned to action in the league, defeating Hibernian 3-0 at Easter Road to ensure they made the most of one of their remaining games against the Hoops.

They now trail their Glasgow opponents by just five points going into the weekend, and Clement will know full well that his team needs to keep scoring points in order to stay ahead of Brendan Rodgers’ team.

The Gers’ record over St Mirren should give them plenty of confidence, having gone unbeaten in 10 of their last 11 competitive meetings. The Buddies progressed in the Scottish Cup last weekend but have lost their grip on third place in the Premiership table and will now shift their focus on securing a top-six finish at a minimum.

Ahead of the game, GlasgowWorld has rounded up all of the enforced injury absences including 7 player ruled out and three rated doubts for St Mirren and Rangers.

1. DOUBT: Todd Cantwell (Rangers)

Has been declared fit to start by Clement after being forced off at half-time against Hibs with a knock. Trained with the team on Friday but might have to take a seat on the bench for this one.

2. DOUBT: Mark O’Hara (St Mirren)

Sat out of last weekend’s Scottish Cup win over Queen of the South with a minor injury. Could be back in time to captain his side on Saturday but that is a big ask.

3. DOUBT: Nicolas Raskin (Rangers)

Like Cantwell, the Belgian midfielder is also available after having an issue with his boot that saw him replaced at half-time at Easter Road. Should be in contention to start if none the worse.
