Ibrox View: Clement to drop forward in two changes - Rangers predicted XI v Kilmarnock

Philippe Clement may be able to welcome Tom Lawrence back to the Rangers starting XI ahead of the trip to face Kilmarnock on Sunday 20 October.

The Gers will be keen to keep up their recent good form with another win in the Scottish Premiership to make it four league wins from four.

Clement made three changes from the Lyon clash ahead of the 2-0 win against St Johnstone and could now make a further two away at Rugby Park.

Even if the Belgian opts to bring in Lawrence and Connor Barron, it is likely that the backline stays the same with Jack Butland an integral part to that after keeping a clean sheet last time out.

The Englishman could be joined by an unchanged defence with Robin Propper and John Souttar likely to be flanked by Jefte and James Tavernier in the full back roles.

In the midfield, Mohamed Diomande could keep his role in the starting XI despite being hooked at half time against St Johnstone. The Ivory Coast international could be joined by the returning Barron who was a second-half substitute last time out. This would see Nicolas Raskin drop to the bench despite a positive showing last time out.

Going forward, Clement may not look to change things too much, especially after Vaclav Cerny grabbed two goals to take his tally to three for the season.

Nedim Bajrami could join him in the forward line while Lawrence may be able to make his return from injury depending on his performances in training after suffering an injury against Lyon.

Young forward Ross McCausland could be forced out of the starting XI but this will allow him to make an impact off the bench for Clement.

Up front, Cyriel Dessers is likely to keep his role from the start despite being replaced by Hamza Igamane on the hour mark last time out. There could be a chance of the bench once again for the 21-year-old but it is most likely to be the Nigerian who is given the nod to start.
