Premiership giants Rangers will be back to domestic action this Saturday, playing host to Motherwell in the league. After two winless outings, Rangers will be looking to call on home comforts at Hampden Park as Ibrox undergoes repairs. Read on for our preview and prediction of this Match Day 2 Premiership clash.
The hosts are coming from a 1-1 draw with Dynamo Kiev in the first leg of the Champions League 3rd qualifying round. Cyril Dessers’ stoppage time goal saved The Gers from what would have been their first loss of the season.
The Nigerian forward’s goal was also the team’s first of the season, after they opened their league campaign with a 0-0 draw away to Hearts. A game at Hampden will still feel like an away match but Rangers must get the business done after their rivals won on the opening week.
The last time these two teams faced off, Motherwell claimed an important 2-1 victory. That marked their first win in 20 meetings with Rangers. A second straight win against the Scottish giants will be an even bigger surprise, but Motherwell aren’t in that shape.
They failed to score in their last two matches and are coming from a 6-0 loss to Everton in a midweek friendly. A growing injury list this early in the season further complicates matters for the visitors. Like Rangers, Motherwell opened their league campaign with a 0-0 draw at home to Ross County.
That result marked a third straight winless league outing. They’ve also failed to score in two of their last three Premiership matches though their away form offers some hope. Motherwell won four of their last six away matches, among those was the win at Rangers.

Our Rangers vs Motherwell Prediction
Our prediction for Rangers v Motherwell is for the game to have over 2.5 goals. These two sides might have started the league on a low but we expect an explosion of goals in this game.
Three of their last five meetings had at least three goals scored and their closing league matches last season were also high scoring. The normal rustiness at the start of the season was expected but we will back this one to lighten up, especially on the attacking ends.
