Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst is set for his fourth game in charge of the club this weekend following his arrival at Ibrox last month.
The Dutchman has won all three of his matches since making the move, with wins over Livingston and Hibernian in the Premiership and three points against Sparta Prague in the Europa League.
They beat Hibs 1-0 last time out, with the 46-year-old bringing Kemar Roofe off the bench to score the winner from the spot.
How many changes will he make for the game against Dundee today? Here is our predicted XI…
We are predicting that he will make three alterations from midweek, with Kemar Roofe, John Lundstram and Fashion Sakala all coming in.
After a clean sheet against Hibs on Wednesday, the back four and goalkeeper could stay the same in order to build some momentum at the back. They functioned well as a unit as they limited the opposition to four shots (just one on target) in the entire match, suggesting that they all deserve to start again this weekend.
In midfield, we are predicting a change to the holding two in front of the defence. We published an article explaining why £13k-per-week dud Steven Davis should be axed from the XI due to the nature of his display against Hibs, but who could replace him? Van Bronckhorst may decide to start Lundstram in the middle of the park, as he could offer strength and accurate passing.
This season, the ex-Sheffield United midfielder has won 56% of his duels and completed 90% of his attempted passes in the Premiership. He could be a reliable option to call upon alongside Kamara, giving Davis the chance to rest and ensure that he is back to his best when he is next needed to start.
Out wide, Sakala could be offered a start. He did not feature against Hibs but has scored eight goals in his last seven appearances for club and country, with his most recent strike coming in the 3-1 win over Livingston in the league. After sitting on the bench on Wednesday, he could be fresh and ready to inject some energy into the side.
Finally, Roofe could lead the line for the Gers. We published an article explaining why he deserves an opportunity to start over Morelos, with the ex-Leeds marksman in fine goalscoring form this season. He has six goals in six Premiership starts and could win the game for Van Bronckhorst with his effectiveness in the penalty area.
