The most obvious threat for Rangers during this evening’s clash with Aberdeen, is Sam Cosgrove.
The 22-year-old target man averages a goal every 112 minutes in the league this season, and is second behind El Buffalo in the scoring charts.
However, the Gers will also face a formidable foe at the other end of the pitch.
Centre-back, Tommie Hoban, returned from long-term injury in January and is now in a good vein of form.
His first appearance since August, came at the end of last month against Killie.
That was an important fixture between two title challengers, and he helped his side to a big clean sheet after replacing the stricken Scott McKenna.

After a routine cup win against Stenhousemuir, he was influential against Hibs at the weekend.
The Dons won 2-1 away at Easter Road, and Hoban was impressively solid.
His display earned him a place in the
SPFL Team of the Week, announced on Tuesday.
Rangers have struggled to find the net against this opposition and may have believed that injury to McKenna would improve their chances this time around.
However, they are now faced with a different, similarly challenging proposition, in 6ft 2′ Hoban.
Whether Gerrard opts for one or two up front at Pittodrie, the Gers forwards will have their work cut out.
