Manager Stuart McCall has said that he is confident that Rangers will progress in the Scottish Championship promotion playoffs.

The fallen Glasgow giants welcome Queen of the South to Ibrox on Sunday and hold a 2-1 advantage from their first-leg match last week.

"We've had good, solid performances. We have had performances that allow us to be confident going into this game that we'll create opportunities. But we have to be strong defensively," McCall told the Scotsman.

"It was important to get a lead when we did in the first leg but questions could have been asked of us when they clawed it back to one each. What pleased me most was our response then. With 15 minutes to go I would have happily taken one-all but I would never tell the lads to sit back.

"The belief in each other is now there in the squad and that has been built up because people's individual performances have improved. Yeah, we still have the little blip to lose a goal here and there but the middle to front play has been encouraging."

The winner of the tie will meet Hibernian in the next round of the playoffs.
