Rangers will be hoping to ensure bitter rivals Celtic don't make it three Scottish Premiership titles on the bounce next season and the side's title challenge will begin with a trip to Kilmarnock.

The Gers challenged the Bhoys for much of the last campaign but ultimately finished in second place, seven points behind Ange Postecoglou's side.

It's been a summer of change at Celtic Park this summer with Postecoglou moving to Spurs and Brendan Rodgers returning. There's no doubt that Mick Beale and Rangers will be hoping to make the most of any transitory problems.

It all starts with that visit to Kilmarnock and here's how Rangers have fared against the side in their last 10 meetings.
