Rangers will look to join Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership table with a win in Sunday's early game at St Mirren, at least for an hour or two before Celtic takes on Dundee later in the day.
Philippe Clement's side put a tough week behind them at the national stadium with a 2-0 Scottish Cup semi-final victory over Hearts to punch their ticket in the Final against rivals Celtic.
But that morale-boosting victory arrived off the back of a 3-2 Premiership defeat at Ross County and a dire scoreless draw in Dundee, which handed the title control back to Brendan Rodgers' side.
There is no margin for error, and the Light Blues must win in Paisley against St Mirren if they are to keep pace with the Hoops at the top.
St Mirren, meanwhile, still have outside chance of securing European football for next season, as they only trail fourth-placed Kilmarnock by eight points.
However, the Buddies do come into this contest out-of-sorts, having failed to win in their previous four outings (1D, 3L).
