Raith Rovers travel to Ibrox to face Rangers in the Scottish Championship this weekend probably fearing the worst following their 4-0 thrashing at the hands of the Gers in September.

Ally McCoist's side, who sit in second place in the table, will be keen to get a result to keep up the pressure on leaders Hearts, who have opened up a nine-point gap at the summit.

Raith defeated Rangers 1-0 in the Ramsdens Cup final last season, and a repeat of that result would see fourth-placed Rovers leapfrog their opponents in the table.

McCoist has a selection headache on his hands this weekend, with striker Kenny Miller pushing for a place in the starting XI at the expense of either Nicky Clark or Kris Boyd.

Marius Zaliukas faces a fitness test ahead of kickoff, and could be replaced by Darren McGregor in defence, in the event that he remains sidelined.
