Diomande & Cortes decisions made – Rangers confirmed XI v Ayr United 

The starting lineup for Rangers against Ayr United in the Scottish Cup on Saturday, February 10th, has been confirmed by Philippe Clement.

Borna Barisic replaces Ridvan Yilmaz to complete the back four in front of Butland, while James Tavernier stays at right back.

 

In addition to Oscar Cortes receiving his first start for the Gers, Nico Raskin, Ryan Jack, and Mohamed Diomande form a midfield combination. Scott Wright and Fabio Silva lead the assault.

Rangers will play Scott Brown. once more
Clement and Rangers face a very different kind of task against Ayr United. Former Celtic midfielder Scott Brown, the team’s new manager, will be eager to lead his group against their Old Firm opponents and will take any necessary steps to lessen their influence.

With a position in the following round of the Scottish Cup still for grabs, Clement will still be taking this match seriously, but it also provides the Gers with a chance to rest important players and try out new arrivals.

Both Diomande and Cortes arrived at Ibrox during the January transfer window, and they are both eager to make their Rangers debut.

With six points separating them from promotion playoff slots and just two points above relegation qualifying, the visitors are enjoying a mediocre season in the Scottish Championship.

In this match, history is also in Rangers’ favor. The two teams have faced off seven times since October 2013, with the Gers emerging victorious each time. Rangers have scored 21 goals in those encounters, while Ayr has only managed to score two.

A commentator has made a prediction on what Light Blues supporters will want to see Scott Brown “squirm” at Ibrox in other Rangers news.
