Ross County recorded a historic first-ever victory over Rangers at the 25th attempt in Dingwall on Sunday to leave Philippe Clement with plenty to ponder ahead of Wednesday’s rescheduled fixture against Dundee.
A 3-2 defeat in the Highlands left the Ibrox side four points adrift of reigning champions Celtic with games fast running out to overhaul their Glasgow rivals, with it now looking likely that the Gers will have to win the final Old Firm derby of the season at Parkhead to have any chance of lifting a 56th Scottish title.
The result also meant that Rangers have now lost at least once to every Scottish Premiership side in their history. With that in mind, GlasgowWorld takes a look back at the last time the Govan outfit were left dejected against fellow top-flight opposition.
5. Kilmarnock 1 Rangers 0 - 05/08/23 (Scottish Premiership)
The early warning signs looked ominous for Michael Beale after a major summer rebuild as his new-look Rangers side fluffed their lines and suffered a shock defeat at Rugby Park on the opening day of the league season for the first time in 25 years. A costly defensive error from John Souttar was pounced on by Brad Lyons in the 65th minute to secure a well-deserved three points for the Ayrshire club and their first over the Ibrox side since April 2020. | SNS Group
6. St Johnstone 2 Rangers 1 - 06/11/22
The pressure started to ramp up on then Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst as they slipped to a first league defeat against the Perth Saints in almost three years. James Brown's wonder strike and Nicky Clark's composed finish secured maximum points for the hosts at McDiarmid Park, with James Tavernier's 74th minute reply not enough to salvage a share of the spoils in a match Rangers dominated without being clinical in front of goal. | SNS Group
7. Rangers 1 Hibernian 3 - 21/11/21 (League Cup semi-final)
The Easter Road club booked their place in the Viaplay Cup final against Celtic after overcoming a Gers side in a state of disarray post-Steven Gerrard. With soon-to-be appointed boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst watching on from the stands at Hampden, Martin Boyle's incredible first-half hat-trick in a manic 29 minute period proved decisive. Scott Arfield handed the Ibrox side a lifeline, but they struggled to seriously test Hibs keeper Matt Macey during a lacklustre second half. | SNS Group
8. St Mirren 3 Rangers 2 - 16/12/20 (League Cup quarter-final)
Steven Gerrard's side crashed out of the competition after a slack performance in Paisley, with Conor McCarthy's dramatic injury-time winner ending the Gers' 27-game unbeaten start to the Covid-affected season. Connor Goldson had broken the deadlock inside the opening ten minutes, but the Buddies rallied strongly with Jamie McGrath scoring either side of the interval including one from the penalty spot. Steven Davis looked to have forced extra-time after turning home James Tavernier's free-kick which came back off the post, but McCarthy settled it to stun the Govan outfit. | SNS Group
