Rangers squad revealed as Nathan Patterson and Jermain Defoe eye key roles against Livingston

Rangers boss Steven Gerrard faces several key calls ahead of his side's clash with Livingston on Wednesday night.

With skipper James Tavernier still out and stand-in Leon Balogun a major doubt after injuring his quad against Royal Antwerp, Nathan Patterson looks set to start for Rangers at right-back despite facing an SFA ban for breaking Covid rules.

Kemar Roofe and Ryan Jack remain out alongside long-term knee casualty Nikola Katic, but Jermain Defoe returns after sitting out the European action.

Livingston star Efe Ambrose hopes to shake off a knock he picked up in Livingston’s Betfred Cup final defeat to St Johnstone to face leaders Rangers.

Fellow defender Jackson Longridge could make his return from a medial knee injury but long-term crocks Alan Lithgow and Keaghan Jacobs remain out.
