Rangers are looking to retain the Scottish Premiership this season, and so far the club are on course to do that as they sit at the top of the league after the opening five games.
While Steven Gerrard’s squad are not undefeated, due to a loss against Dundee United in the second game, they have won the other four and that has helped put them in a commanding position so far.
Defensively, the Gers have been impressive this season, having kept five clean sheets across all competitions, with Allan McGregor and Jon McLaughlin shining in goal during the early stages.
Rangers lost their most recent match, which came midweek against Ligue 1 side Lyon, where a Karl Toko Ekambi strike and a James Tavernier own goal started their Europa League campaign poorly.
However, prior to that defeat, Gerrard’s squad had actually gone on a six-game undefeated streak, showcasing the type of quality that helped the club win the league last season.
The Gers followed up an important 1-0 victory during the Old Firm derby, by beating St Johnstone 2-1 in their last fixture in the Scottish Premiership, with Tavernier getting on the scoresheet in the latter game.
Motherwell and Rangers competed three times last season, and the Steelmen were unable to win any of the games, having lost twice and drawn once, which was actually their most recent encounter.
