Rangers are on Christmas Eve duty as they make the short trip southeast to Fir Park for a Scottish Premiership clash against Motherwell.
If Celtic slipped up against Livingston on Saturday, Philippe Clement’s men would have had the chance to go top of the league tree at Christmas. Unfortunately, they picked up three points but Rangers do still have that game in hand so all is definitely not lost.
The title race is well and truly on and a win over the struggling Steelmen would only reinforce that fact. Clement is looking for to remain unbeaten in his 16th match as Rangers manager and with victory, will continue to close in on William Wilton’s 123-year long unbeaten start record.
We go into the game off the back of a Viaplay Cup triumph and a comfortable win over St Johnstone. All is not rosy though, as we detail below regarding injuries. Here is how you can watch Motherwell vs Rangers tomorrow, as well as team news and our prediction.

Rangers team news and injuries
As mentioned above, Philippe Clement is having to deal with a spate of injuries that doesn’t seem to be easing up at all.
John Lundstram and Kemar Roofe have been ruled out of the encounter, as they join Tom Lawrence, Danilo, Nico Raskin, Jose Cifuentes and Ryan Jack on the crocked list.
Check out our predicted XI for how we think Rangers will line-up against Motherwell.
Prediction: Motherwell 0-2 Rangers
Clement has managed to navigate his way through the injury crisis without it affecting results on the pitch and we think that will continue in Lanarkshire.
Motherwell cannot buy a win and while Fir Park can be a tricky venue for Rangers historically, we should still have enough to secure a victory and stay two points behind Celtic with a game in hand.
