This Saturday afternoon, Rangers head to the Falkirk Stadium for their final Scottish Premiership matchday clash, facing a Falkirk side determined to end the season on a high note.
Rangers currently sit third in the table with 69 points, while Falkirk are sixth with 49 points. With both teams locked into their current positions regardless of the result, pride and momentum are very much on the line.
Falkirk manager John McGlynn is navigating a challenging injury list as the Bairns look to secure a positive result in front of their home fans. There is a major boost, however, as on-loan centre-back Lewis Neilson is available to return to the matchday squad after being ineligible to face his parent club, Hearts, in midweek.
On the flip side, key striker Barney Stewart is a major doubt after missing the previous fixture with a foot injury. Louie Marsh and Ethan Williams are both ruled out with long-term thigh injuries, while Filip Lissah (ankle), Leon McCann (hamstring strain), and goalkeeper Scott Bain (ankle) are also sidelined. The depth of the injury crisis will test the squad's resilience.
Across the pitch, Rangers head coach Danny Rohl faces severe squad limitations of his own for this season finale. Departing captain James Tavernier is officially out, having played his final game for the club. Following a highly publicised tactical fallout with Rohl before the midweek defeat to Hibs, Tavernier received a delayed medical injection to manage a lingering ankle injury.
Midfielder Nicolas Raskin remains completely sidelined due to an ongoing hamstring injury, and defender Dujon Sterling is considered a major fitness doubt because of physical complications regarding his ability to safely feature on Falkirk’s artificial turf pitch.
With these absences, Rohl is likely to turn to Max Aarons to fill the vacant right-back slot. Meanwhile, Ryan Naderi and Bailey Rice are officially unavailable due to existing injuries, severely limiting Rohl’s options as he seeks to snap a four-match losing streak and navigate a difficult end to the campaign.
