Rangers Team News
Rangers started the competition in this year’s Premiership. They visited Kilmarnock, played good football, and possessed the ball almost 70 percent of the time but failed to score a goal. Brad Lyons scored the winning goal for Kilmarnock in the 65th minute, and the home team managed to defend their goal against numerous Rangers chances.
That defeat was a consequence of preparations for the last qualifying round for the Champions League. The Rangers welcomed Servette and started the match violently to avoid repeating the failure from the previous weekend. They scored two goals in the 6th and 15th minutes. Servette reduced the lead at the end of the first half, but they couldn’t do more.
Now they can turn to the second round in the domestic competition. Livingston is not a team that can threaten them; it’s just a question of how effective the Rangers strikers will be.

Livingston Team News
Behind Livingston is the match against Aberdeen, which ended goalless for both sides. It was a game in which the rivals were almost evenly matched and equally ineffective in attack.
Last year, Livingston finished the regular part of the season in seventh place and was the team with the most points in the fight for survival. After the playoffs, they finished second in that group, playing very erratically.
This season they have strengthened a bit, but in general, the same team from last season has problems in attack. Before the draw with Aberdeen, Livingston defeated Clyde in the cup 1:0, Cove Rangers 5:0, and Hamilton on penalties 4:1. Against more substantial teams, they play quietly without too much ambition in the offense. Last year they conceded 24 more goals than they scored. We will see if that has changed.

Rangers vs Livingston Prediction
Rangers have behind them a defeat that surprised them. They successfully qualified for the Champions League, and in the second round of the Premiership, it is the right time to show if they are up to the challenge of the Celtics team this season. We expect extremely attacking football from them, a win, and more than 2.5 goals per match.
