Rangers vs. St Johnstone: Philippe Clement updates Rabbi Matondo on injuries.

Prior to the league matchup between Rangers and St Johnstone on Sunday, February 18, Philippe Clement has provided an update on his team.

Leon Balogun is expected to make a comeback, but Rabbi Matondo’s injury to his muscles will prevent him from playing.

Abdallah Sima, Danilo, and Kemar Roofe will all be out for the Ibrox team because no other players have returned.

Using the club’s Twitter account, Clement stated: “Rabbi (Matondo) has a small muscle issue, which is why he was changed at HT.” He will miss this game due to a scan, but I believe he will return soon. Only Leon Balogun returns once his face mask has been adjusted, making him a candidate for selection.

In order to maintain pressure on Celtic, Rangers must win.

Rangers, who are legitimately regarded as the favorites for the game, are aware that they must defeat St Johnstone.

Rangers, who are currently trailing Celtic by a slim margin in the Premier League, are keen to keep up the momentum and stay competitive.

With an amazing 43 shots on goal in their latest game against Ross County, they demonstrated their attacking ability and demonstrated their desire to control games.

The fact that a victory would allow the Gers to overtake Celtic highlights how crucial it is to secure all three points.

Furthermore, despite their defense’s resiliency, their opponents have faltered and are now a good target for Clement’s team to exploit toward the bottom of the table.

They are also clearly the favorites going into the game because of their attacking strengths and recent performance.

The team’s chances of victory are further increased by James Tavernier’s potential impact from set pieces and their capacity to score goals early.

A former midfielder for Everton and Liverpool has disclosed an offer to guarantee a permanent move to Ibrox, according to other Rangers news.
