Clement provides Rangers injury update on Matondo, Souttar and Raskin

Rangers boss Philippe Clement has provided injury updates on Rabbi Matondo, John Souttar and Nico Raskin.

Each player has been out for a period of time with Matondo being kept on the sidelines with a knee injury with a muscle problem has kept Souttar out of action.

Raskin, meanwhile, was stretchered off during the 2-1 victory against Hearts at Ibrox. And Clement has revealed when he expects the players to be back.

He said: " I expect Rabbi Matondo back after the international break, John Souttar and Nico Raskin - so there will be more competition.

"We are unsure about Scott Wright for the weekend, but we are hopeful for after the break."

Meanwhile, Rangers hero Kris Boyd was impressed with his former club's victory over Sparta Prague.

Philippe Clement's side defeated the Czech club 2-1 as they edged close to reaching the Europa League knockout stages.

And after Todd Cantwell fired home the Light Blues' second goal, the Sky Sports cameras cut to Boyd who was on punditry duties and he could not resist a dig at colleague Lee Hendrie.

He said: "Nobody's interested Hendo, get off, it's all about the Rangers tonight!

"It's a great ball from John Lundstram. A lovely long ball and Sima makes a lovely run, it comes off the back of one of the defenders.

"It drops to Danilo who plays a ball to Cantwell. He just cuts inside on his left foot and rolls it past the goalkeeper into the far corner, it's a lovely goal from Rangers."
