Victory not guaranteed but home form bodes well for Rangers
[BBC] Danny Rohl will be keen to get his full squad back on the training field after their international exertions to refocus on what could yet be a sensational ending to the season for the Ibrox club. Barring injuries picked up on international duty, Rohl has more or less a full squad with which to mount a title tilt, beginning with the visit of Dundee United at the weekend. That gives them the opportunity to strike the first blow in this latest stage of the title race, with both their rivals playing on Sunday.
Rangers will be top on goal difference if they can take all three points against United and who knows what that could do psychologically as Hearts travel to Livingston the following day. Victory is by no means guaranteed, of course, but Rangers' recent home record has been impressive - the 2-2 draw with Celtic the only time in their last nine in the league in which they have failed to win at Ibrox. It could be a nervy occasion on Saturday but if Rohl's side can handle the pressure, they know they have put themselves in a terrific position.
Nothing will be settled this weekend, but we will get a better idea of which of the three title contenders has the mettle to get over the line by the close of play on Sunday.
