Rangers first domestic home game of the season against Hibernian has been rescheduled to kick off 24 hours later than originally planned.
Rangers will now play Hibs on Sunday 11th August at 3 pm, as opposed to kicking off the first domestic game at Ibrox on the Saturday at 3 pm.
This is due to the fact Rangers are travelling to Denmark to play FC Midtjylland in the Europa League Third Qualifying Round.
Rangers defeated Hibs 1-0 in the last Ibrox meeting between the two sides, courtesy of a solitary Jermain Defoe goal.
It was the Ibrox club’s only victory over the Easter Road club last season, with the other three encounters ending in draws.
Rangers will be hoping to start the new Scottish Premiership campaign as strongly as possible and also set the tone at Ibrox for the coming season.
They’ll have to do in front of a lively travelling support too.
Hibs reportedly sold out their allocation for the match inside 30 minutes as the Edinburgh club look forward to travelling to Glasgow for what should be a fiery encounter as always.
