Rangers News
Midfielder Ryan Jack is slowly integrating back into first-team training after recovering from a calf injury, but the 29-year-old is not fit enough to participate this week.
Steven Davis and Kemar Roofe, who started on the bench against Hearts, are expected to return to the starting roster earlier today and replace Lundstram and Scott Wright.
The Rangers medical staff will evaluate Ryan Kent's hamstring injury before kickoff, and Steven Gerrard is hopeful the winger can show up tonight.
Filip Helander, however, is still out with a knee problem, so Leon Balogun is expected to keep his place alongside Connor Goldson in central defense.

This is how Brondby arrive
Brondby is heading to Ibrox having played in Scotland on three previous occasions in European competition, winning each of his last two visits against Aberdeen and Hibernian in 1996 and 2016 respectively.
Arguably Brondby's first European campaign since 2008-09 has started a bit better than expected, as they have managed to claim a point in their first two group stage matches. They achieved a goalless draw at home against Sparta Prague in their opener, before suffering a 3-0 loss on the road against one of the tournament's favorites, Lyon, last month.
Since their loss in France, Niels Frederiksen has seen his team earn four points in their last two Danish Super League matches, drawing 1-1 against Randers before securing a dramatic 3-2 win at home against Vejie BK, an encounter which saw Mikael Uhre and Christian Cappis score in the final eight minutes to take all three points.
This is how the Rangers arrive
Steven Gerrard's men remain at the top of the table, one point ahead of their closest rivals Heart and four points above their Glasgow rivals Celtic.
The Rangers missed an opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership as they played a 1-1 draw at home against the high-flying Hearts last weekend.
The Rangers now turn their attention to the Europa League, where they must improve if they are to advance to the knockout rounds for the third consecutive season.
The Rangers have lost three of their last four home games in all European competitions. They suffered 2-0 and 1-0 losses to Lyon and Sparta Prague respectively and another loss on Thursday would seriously damage their hopes of advancing from Group A. However, Gerrard must be sure that his side has the strength to get over Brondby in the middle of the week.
The match will be played at Ibrox Stadium
The Ibrox Stadium is a football stadium located on the south bank of the River Clyde in the Ibrox district of the city of Glasgow, Scotland. The stadium is owned by Rangers Football Club. With a capacity of 50,987 people, it is the third largest stadium in Scotland and has also been the home stadium of the Scottish national football team.
It was opened as Ibrox Park in 1899, but suffered a major disaster in 1902, when a wooden grandstand collapsed. In 1971, the stadium was almost completely rebuilt. The huge bowl-shaped bleachers were removed and replaced with three rectangular sections in 1981. After renovations were completed in 1997, the field was renamed Ibrox Stadium.
