Rangers will welcome Aberdeen to Ibrox Stadium in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday. The visitors are in fourth place in the league table with 35 points, nine fewer than the Gers.
The hosts are unbeaten in their last five league games, though three have ended in draws. They returned to winning ways after two draws in their previous outing with a 3-1 home triumph over St. Johnstone. Hamza Igamane, Václav Černý, and Mohamed Diomande scored in quick succession in the first half in that win.
The Dons have seen a drop in form recently and are winless in their last 11 games. They arrested their losing streak after five games last week, playing out a goalless draw against Hearts.

Rangers vs Aberdeen Prediction
The Gers have won 10 of their 11 home games in the Premiership this season and are unbeaten at home in the league since March 2024. They have kept clean sheets in their 11 home games in the Premiership this term and will look to build on that form.
Captain James Tavernier is a key absentee while on-loan defender Naraysho Kasanwirjo is out for the season and might return to his parent club. John Souttar and Jack Butland will also miss this match while defenders Leon Balogun and Dujon Sterling are doubts.
The Don are winless in their last 11 league games and will look to return to winning ways here. They kept their first clean sheet since October in their previous outing and will look to build on that form. Nonetheless, they have lost their last three away games without scoring and are likely to struggle here.
They have a lengthy absentee list as Pape Habib Gueye, Vincente Besuijen, Jack Milne, Ester Sokler, Dimitar Mitov, and Gavin Molloy remain unavailable with injuries.
The hosts have been the dominant side in this fixture and, considering Aberdeen's poor run of form, the Gers are expected to record a comfortable win.
