Preview: Hearts v Rangers (Sat)

by Setanta staff , 01 October 2010

Defenders Madjid Bougherra (hip) and Kirk Broadfoot (foot) both have knocks but should be fit for Rangers' trip to Tynecastle to play Hearts.


Nikica Jelavic returns to the squad after missing the clash with Bursaspor through ineligibility.

Stephen Elliott, David Templeton and Suso Santana are all doubtful for Hearts but Craig Thomson is back from suspension.

Lee Wallace (knee), Marius Zaliukas (contract dispute) and Dawid Kucharski (calf) remain absent.

Hearts (from): Kello, Barr, Bouzid, Black, Stevenson, Glen, Palazuelos, Templeton, Elliot, Elliott, Santana, Balogh, Kyle, Jonsson, Mrowiec, J Thomson, C Thomson, Skacel, Novikovas.

Rangers (from): McGregor, Whittaker, Broadfoot, Papac, Weir, Bougherra, Davis, Edu, McCulloch, Weiss, Lafferty, Naismith, Miller, Jelavic, Little, Hutton, Webster, Alexander.
