Steven Gerrard must name Rangers star Ryan Kent in a Premiership starting XI for the first time since September against Ross County on Sunday.
Kent struggled a little during the early stages of the season, notching several assists but failing to score in nine appearances.
He then sustained a relatively serious hamstring injury against Lyon which sidelined him for a month and a half.
However, he returned with a bang in Denmark on Thursday evening, notching a brilliant assist off the bench to help the Gers secure an underwhelming but potentially crucial point.
There was no sign that the 24-year-old was holding back, fearing a reoccurrence of his injury. Quite the opposite, in fact.
He buzzed around the forward line, looking to take on defenders and create chances for his teammates.
The pace and trickery he offers are qualities that Rangers have missed badly in his absence and he must return to the team at Ibrox this weekend.
There may be a temptation to only give him another cameo role, wrapping him up in cotton wool with the international break looming.
However, Rangers can’t afford a slip-up against the Staggies.
A tendency to concede sloppy goals and a lack of penetration in the final third have led to three draws in the last four home league matches and one way to stop the trend is to come out of blocks quickly and put the game beyond the opposition early on.
Rangers have a much better chance of doing that with Kent in the side and if he’s only able to last an hour, then so be it.
Steven Gerrard and the Ibrox faithful won’t expect a full 90-minute performance from the former Liverpool starlet, just a similarly impressive impact to the one he made off the bench in Denmark.
In other news, a Rangers-linked Euro club captain was sent off in a Europa Conference League thriller on Thursday.
