Danny Wilson is expected to return to the Rangers team for Tuesday's Petrofac Training Cup quarter-final against holders Livingston at Ibrox.

The defender missed Saturday's win over Queen of the South due to a slight knock.

American Gedion Zelalem could also be recalled having been rested following international duty, although David Templeton and Cammy Bell remain out with knee injuries.

Rangers manager Mark Warburton told the club's website: "It's a game we want to go and win. We're two games away from a cup final and silverware, another honour for the club and a day for the supporters. So we're very much aware we want to go into the game with a strong team."

He also suggested they could make changes from the weekend, adding: "We have a tight squad as you know so we will have one or two changes but again it's making sure our squad is fit and well."

Rangers go into the game having won all 10 Championship matches this season, including a 3-0 victory over bottom-of-the-table Livingston last month.

Livingston will be without the suspended Scott Pittman and Myles Hippolyte. Danny Mullen, Darren Cole, and Craig Sives all miss out through injury.

Livi manager Mark Burchill: "We want to continue as the holders so will look to win at Ibrox. We are big underdogs as we are at the bottom of the table and Rangers are at the top.

"We are playing better than our points tally would indicate and were unfortunate to lose to St Mirren on Saturday.

The winners of the tie face a home semi-final against St Mirren next month.
