Line-ups confirmed as Gray starts in Spurs defence

Rangers will give former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou a lively reception as his Tottenham side look for a win at Ibrox.

Spurs are on a run of just one win in their last seven games and both sides go into this one on 10 points in the Europa League table.

Here’s how the teams line up.

Hamza Igamane was Rangers’ star man for their win in France last time out and he leads the line again while captain James Tavernier returns to the starting XI.

Rangers have scored 12 times in this Europa League campaign already so will test that fragile Tottenham backline.

Rangers XI: Jack Butland, Ridvan Yilmaz, Robin Pröpper, John Souttar, James Tavernier, Nedim Bajrami, Nicolas Raskin, Jefté, Mohamed Diomande, Václav Cerny, Hamza Igamane

Tottenham team news

Spurs’ defensive worries mean that the versatile Archie Gray has to play at centre-back while either captain Son or Timo Werner will get the chance to play as a central striker.

Fraser Forster – another with Celtic links – is in goal once more.
