After a 2-1 victory in their previous fixture, Rangers will look to add another win to their catalogue against a tough opposition. The home side have had a rocky start to their new Scottish campaign despite not losing a single game in their opening six encounters.
With four wins and two draws, the Scottish heavyweights are in third position behind league leaders Celtic and second-placed St. Mirren. The finalists of last season lost to Celtic at the final hurdle but The Light Blues would be vying to take revenge and lay their hands on the prestigious trophy this time out.
Despite Livingston's valiant efforts to finish at the summit of their table in the Scottish League Cup, Rangers have emerged victorious against them on numerous occasions and could be a long night for the visitors. Livingston faltered in the Second Round of the competition last year but have already jumped a step ahead this time round with a quarter-final clash against Rangers.
An upset at the Ibrox Stadium could see Livingston etch their name in the history books on Wednesday.
