Rangers predicted XI vs St Mirren: Cyriel Dessers dropped with change at No.10
Rangers return to domestic action to face St Mirren in what is a great opportunity for Philippe Clement to keep the wagon rolling following the impressive FCSB performance.
The pace, intensity and attitude throughout the squad was night and day to what the manager saw against Kilmarnock and he will want more of the same at Ibrox on Sunday.
The visitors currently sit eighth in the table with two wins so far this season, for those interested; Celtic have Motherwell and Aberdeen have Dundee Utd.

Rangers predicted XI vs St Mirren
This is your predicted Rangers XI for the Scottish Premiership clash with St Mirren.
Jack Butland was a lucky boy against FCSB in more ways than one after nearly gifting a goal after just a few minutes.
He also picked up a knock in the incident but performed well for the rest of the game and showed no real ill effects.
The defence was solid against the Romanians with the pairing of Leon Balogun and John Souttar giving little away.
Balogun departed with cramp late on, however, with Pittodrie just around the corner, he deserves to keep his place, even if it means Robin Propper coming off the bench again.

Clement likes consistency in his defence and there is no reason to change the full-backs, even if Neraysho Kasanwirjo is champing at the bit to start in his preferred right-back role.
A change in midfield for Rangers vs St Mirren
The Rangers boss changed things up in midfield and the addition of Nicolas Raskin was a force for good.
Alongside Connor Barron, they formed the sort of partnership that could work well domestically and in Europe.
In front of them, Mohamed Diomande comes in for the injured Tom Lawrence to play centrally with wing options seeing Nedim Bajrami continue on the left.
The only other change, after Vaclav Cerny’s man of the match display, should be Hamza Igamane replacing Cyriel Dessers.
The way that Dessers walked off the pitch after the third goal went in against FCSB, and his recent form, doesn’t deserve to be rewarded with another start.
Rangers fans don’t expect their side to be perfect every week, however, the same mentality is the minimum that they will want to see from whoever is picked.
