Everything you need to know ahead of Scottish Premiership fixture

Rangers will look to get their title bid back on track when they travel to Paisley to face St Mirren on Sunday.

Philippe Clement’s side have managed just one win in their last five league matches following defeats to Motherwell and Ross County and draws with Celtic and Dundee. The run of just five points from a possible 15 has left the Ibrox men three points behind Celtic at the top of the table with five matches remaining.

Rangers got back to winning ways last weekend in the Scottish Cup semi-final with a 2-0 victory over Hearts sending them through to the final against Celtic on May 25.

The Ibrox side are still on course for a treble having already lifted the Viaplay Cup this season but will need to hope Celtic slip up in the league if they are to clinch their first league title since 2020-21.

Due to the nature of the post-split fixtures, it will be the third time Rangers have visited St Mirren this season with a 3-0 win in October followed up by a 1-0 victory in January. The Buddies were also put to the sword at Ibrox 2-0 in December.
