Rangers face Queen's Park in the Scottish Cup, with the Gers aiming to avoid an empty trophy cabinet this season.
Rangers have one last realistic opportunity to secure domestic silverware this season as they face Queen's Park in the Scottish Cup fifth round. The Gers suffered penalty shootout heartbreak in the League Cup Final against Celtic in December and are currently trailing their rivals by an insurmountable 13 points in the Premiership.
While Philippe Clement has orchestrated a remarkable run to the Europa League knockout stages, with James Tavernier potentially leading the Light Blues to a second European final in three years, a place in the May showpiece final at Hampden Park remains a top priority for Rangers, who desperately want to avoid ending the campaign empty-handed. Having overcome Highland League minnows Fraserburgh in the previous round, Rangers have been handed another favorable home draw against the Spiders, who are currently fifth in the Championship. The Ibrox side will be looking to make the most of this opportunity to progress in the competition. Record Sport provides all the essential details you need to know ahead of the Glasgow derby. The match will take place at Ibrox on Sunday, January 9th, with kick-off scheduled for 3:30 PM. Premier Sports will broadcast the Scottish Cup fifth-round tie live.
