Rangers will need to be sharp for this upcoming fixture against Dundee United. 

There's every chance that Michael Beale's side could be a whopping 12-points behind league leaders Celtic by the time they play this weekend.

The champions host Kilmarnock nearly 24-hours prior to Rangers' game.

It was a bitter blow losing that late goal at home to the Hoops on January 2. 

If they're to maintain some form of pressure on Celtic, they'll need to win. 

Dundee United have picked up though having won their last two matches.
