Rangers host Tottenham Hotspur this week in the Europa League, with Spurs needing a win to arrest their poor form.
The North London side are winless in their last four games, with the most recent being a humiliating capitulation at the hands of Chelsea.
Ange Postecoglou should expect a hostile reception as he spent two years at Rangers' bitter rivals, Celtic. During his stint at Celtic, the Australian won five trophies, including two Scottish Premiership titles.
The home side come into the match having won their last four games.
Philippe Clement's side will be no pushover as they will more than likely see this competition as a great chance to secure silverware for the Glaswegian club.
Both sides have 10 points, with Rangers eighth and Tottenham in ninth, separated by goal difference.

Team News
The home side have fewer injuries than their opponents, with Neraysho Kasanwirjo being the only long time absentee.
Tom Lawrence and Oscar Cortes have a chance to feature but could miss out with knocks.
Hamza Igamane should start given his superb goalscoring form, as he has netted four goals in his last four games.
Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven both went off injured in the match against Chelsea, which makes them significant doubts for this game.
Brennan Johnson was also brought off in the last match and Ben Davies remains sidelined with a hamstring injury, which he suffered in the 1-0 loss to Bournemouth.
Richarlison, Wilson Odobert and Mikey Moore remain as long-term absentees, but Will Lankshear could feature after serving his suspension for receiving a red card against Galatasaray.
Rodrigo Bentancur is likely to come into the side as his seven game match ban does not apply in European competitions.

Key Players
Rangers - Hamza Igamane
The Moroccan hitman has scored four goals in four games and has netted three times in Europe after scoring against Steaua Bucharest and a double against Nice.
Igamane will look to expose Spurs' frailties at the back and will likely get a lot of chances to send his side into the lead.
Tottenham Hotspur - Heung-min Son
The South Korean forward is one of Tottenham's greatest ever players. Despite a few missed chances against Chelsea last week, he will be keen to get on the scoresheet.
Rangers have not beaten an English opponent in their last six attempts and Spurs will be looking to their captain to exploit their weaknesses.
