Rangers team news v St Johnstone revealed as Kemar Roofe starts and Scott Wright makes the bench

Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has named his team to face St Johnstone in the Premiership.

The Ibrox manager is without Alfredo Morelos after accepting his three game ban for violent conduct after an incident with Ryan Porteous last week.

The striker will miss tonight's game as well as matches with Kilmarnock and Hamilton over the next 10 days and it provides an opportunity for Kemar Roofe and Cedric Itten.

It's the former who starts tonight with Roofe handed the main striking jersey alongside Ianis Hagi and Ryan Kent in the front three.

Itten is on the bench and he's joined by new boy Scott Wright who could make his debut for the club.

The midfield sees Ryan Jack start alongside Steven Davis and Joe Aribo with Glen Kamara rested.

In defence, Jack Simpson isn't yet available so Filip Helander continues alongside Connor Goldson with James Tavernier and Borna Barisic at full back.

Full team: McGregor, Tavernier, Goldson, Helander, Barisic, Davis, Jack, Aribo, Hagi, Roofe, Kent

Subs: McLaughlin, Patterson, Bassey, Balogun, Zungu, Kamara, Wright, Itten, Stewart
