Rangers v Aberdeen: Team news for Saturday's Premiership clash at Ibrox
Saturday 3 December 2016 14:00, UK
Rangers midfielder Josh Windass is expected to miss the Scottish Premiership match against Aberdeen at Ibrox on Saturday.
The midfielder suffered a hamstring injury during the Glasgow derby against Partick at Firhill last Saturday.
Windass missed the 2-0 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle in midweek, his former Accrington Stanley team-mate Matt Crooks came in for just his third start of the season in that match, and could start again.
Central defender Clint Hill has not played in the past two games after picking up a knock in the match against Dundee in November, but the 38-year-old is available.
Rangers have won just one league match in seven attempts against the teams who finished in the top six last season.
Aberdeen are looking to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat to Celtic in the League Cup final at Hampden when they travel to Glasgow for the second week in succession.
Dons manager Derek McInnes has a full squad at his disposal and may make some changes to his team as they hope for a second league victory over Rangers this season following a 2-1 success at Pittodrie in September.
Forward Niall McGinn could return to the starting line-up after coming off the bench in the past two matches.
Aberdeen are looking for their first victory at Ibrox since September 1991 at a venue where they have lost to Celtic, St Johnstone and Rangers during that run.
