Rangers head into Friday night’s Scottish League Cup clash against Dunfermline Athletic knowing that it’s a must-win game.
Not only would defeat represent a major upset and a shock early exit from the competition, but it would also hand Steven Gerrard the dubious honour of being the first Gers manager to lose four games on the bounce since the 1980s.
The Ibrox side have suffered a hat-trick of losses over the past week and a half, exiting the Champions League at the hands of Malmo and slipping up against Dundee United in the league.
Friday’s outing should give Gerrard's men a prime opportunity to get themselves back on track though, and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Gers boss ring the changes.
But who will get the nod at Ibrox?
