Rangers have named their starting eleven and substitutes for this evening’s Scottish League Cup encounter with Livingston at Ibrox.

 

Livingston sprung a shock at the weekend when downing Rangers’ rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership and will be keen to record another surprise result tonight.

 

 

They meet a Rangers side determined to lay their hands on cup silverware though, with the Gers’ last cup success coming in the Scottish League Cup in 2011.

 

Rangers are without winger Ryan Kent, who has a hamstring issue.

 

 

In goal tonight, Rangers boss Steven Gerrard picks Jon McLaughlin, while in defence he has Nathan Patterson, Connor Goldson, Leon Balogun and Calvin Bassey.

 

Midfield sees Rangers deploy John Lundstram, Glen Kamara and Joe Aribo, while leading the charge up top are Kemar Roofe, Scott Wright and Alfredo Morelos.

 

Gerrard has options on the bench if he needs to make changes, including Fashion Sakala and Scott Arfield.
