Rangers performed below their best on opening weekend as they dropped points through an 87th-minute equalizer in their 1-1 draw against Motherwell. The hosts, who only featured in two preseason friendlies throughout the off-season, however, returned to winning ways during the week with a 3-0 win over Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League qualifying rounds and will hope to continue in the same vein domestically.

Dundee only narrowly avoided relegation last season and are off to a poor start as they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Hibernian in their first league game of the new season. The visitors won each of their three preseason friendlies before entering the League Cup group phase in July, but have since been eliminated from the cup and will hope to put together a good run early in the league campaign.
