This match will be played on 02/03/2024 at 12:00
After surviving Kilmarnock at Rugby Park, Rangers will be aiming to retain top position in the standings when they take on Motherwell in the Premiership round 29. The Gers look unstoppable at the moment and, no doubt, they are eager to record their 13th home win of the process. Nigeria forward Cyriel Dessers is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while all Danilo, Cantwell, Dowell, Matondo, and Sima remain in the recovery room.
The Well, on the other hand, did well to beat Livingston 3-1, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run. Stuart Kettlewell’s troops, though, have recorded only two wins on the road this term and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Rangers’ party at Ibrox Stadium. Jack Vale is widely expected to return to Motherwell’s starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the midweek triumph.
How the bookies view it
Rangers are predictably short all over and at 2/11 with Coral, they will be the bedrock of many accas.
Motherwell are available at 18/1 with Coral too and the draw is 14/1 with WJ casino.
Recent head to heads
Rangers won 2-0 in Lanarkshire and 1-0 at Ibrox so far this season and have won the last eight meetings between the teams.
Motherwell’s last win at Ibrox came in the Premiership play-offs in 2015.
Players to watch
Mohammed Diomande has looked impressive since his loan move in January and netted against Hearts. He is 23/10 to score anytime with Coral.
Blair Spittal is Motherwell’s most creative player and he netted a peach of a strike against Celtic last week and at Livingston in midweek. He has a respectable 11 goals for the season in all competitions and is 15/2 to increase that at Ibrox with Wjcasino.
How many goals will be scored in the match?
Rangers have been scoring goals at a good rate at home for the past many matches. The case of Motherwell on the road isn’t different too. Thus, we expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
The offensive consistency of both these teams forces us to back the both teams to score display here. On top of that four of their last five meetings at this stadium had goals from both ends.
Final Verdict
Considering all these observations, Rangers is likely to seal a win here. Their decent home form with exceptional h2h display against Motherwell inclines us to back them here.
Therefore, we like to start with Rangers to win and both teams to score at 3.00 odds. For the second tip, we like to place the over 2.5 goals tip at 1.53 odds.
