Rangers have started the season strongly, having won their opening two Scottish Premiership matches and are currently second on the table, three points behind Hibernian, who have played a game more.<\/p>\n\n\n
Steven Gerrard is yet to win a trophy at Ibrox and the Liverpool legend and the Gers are desperate to break Celtic’s stranglehold on the domestic league, which the Hoops have won nine times on the trot.<\/p>\n\n\n
A good start to the season is definitely a step in the right direction but Rangers should be wary of slipping up against less-fancied teams, which was a trait for the Scottish giants next season.<\/p>\n\n\n
Next up for Rangers<\/a> is a home against St Johnstone<\/a>, who are seventh on the league table with a solitary point from one game.<\/p>\n\n\n So without further ado, let’s preview Rangers’ upcoming Scottish Premiership<\/a> clash against St Johnstone.<\/p>\n\n\n Rangers: <\/strong>W-L-W-L-W<\/p>\n\n\n St Johnstone: <\/strong>D-W-D-L-D<\/p>\n\n\n Rangers won their last match in the league 3-0 against St Mirren on Sunday, while St Johnstone were held to a 1-1 draw by Dundee United in what was their first match of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n Total Matches: 28<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n Rangers wins: 18<\/p>\n\n\n St Johnstone wins: 5<\/p>\n\n\n Draws: 5<\/p>\n\n\n The Saints were able to hold the Gers to a 2-2 draw in the last meeting between the sides at McDiarmid Park<\/a> back in February. The draw came as yet another nail in the coffin for Rangers as they fell further behind Celtic<\/a> in the title race.<\/p>\n\n\n Rangers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n Veteran goalkeeper, Allan McGregor<\/a> is set to be back between the sticks on Wednesday after missing Sunday\u2019s game against St Mirren with a knock.<\/p>\n\n\n Midfielders, Scott Arfield and Steven Davis are also expected to start as Steven Gerrard<\/a> will look to freshen up the team as they prepare to play their third game in the space six days.<\/p>\n\n\nRangers vs St Johnstone recent form<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
