St Mirren
Match Time & Date:
24 August 2025
12:00
Prediction: 1-1
Rangers
St. Mirren will be aiming to claim a major scalp in the Premiership round 3 as they host Rangers to their SMISA Stadium on Sunday. The Saints have been making life difficult for Rangers in recent years, with the team winning two of the previous three meetings between the two teams, but they should be happy with one point from the match as well. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, while midfielder Liam Donnelly remains in the recovery room. After a series of poor results at the start of the season, Rangers’ campaign has almost collapsed.
The Gers suffered a heart-breaking 3-1 loss to Club Brugge in the Champions League playoffs, first leg, while dropping four points in total in the first two Premiership games of the season. Rangers practically face a must-win situation against St. Mirren, but with boss Russell Martin being expected to rest several first-team regulars for the Champions League clash with Club Brugge, we are tempted to bet on draw. Rangers striker Cyriel Dessers is unlikely to be risked, while defender Dujon Sterling remains on the sidelines with injury.
Highlighted Team (Rangers):
Glasgow Rangers are one of the two synonyms for Scottish Football. Glasgow Rangers were founded back in 1872 and they have been playing an important role in the Scottish top flight ever since. The Gers won their 54th Scottish Premier League title in the 2010/2011 season, but winning of European Cup Winners’ Cup trophy in 1972 is considered the club’s biggest success.
Glasgow Rangers defeated Dynamo Moscow in the final of the competition, with the likes of Stein and Johnston (two goals) scoring for the Scottish side. Celtic are considered the club’s biggest rivals and there have always been fireworks when the two teams meet in the Old Firm derby. The likes of Paul Gascoigne, David Weir, Stefan Klos, Chris Boyd, Ian Durrant and Kenny Miller are some of Rangers’ former notable players.
It has to be noted that the Gers welcome their rivals at Ibrox Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 50,817. Rangers’ support is largely drawn from the Protestant Unionist community.
