Rangers will host Dundee United on Sunday - Scottish Premiership

Rangers return to domestic action this weekend and will host Dundee United at Ibrox on Sunday afternoon in another matchday of the Scottish Premiership.

The hosts are enjoying a good spell at the moment. They played out a 1-1 draw against rivals Celtic in the Old Firm Derby last weekend but bounced back from that to advance to their first European final in 14 years after beating RB Leipzig 3-1 on Thursday night.

Rangers sit second in the league table with 80 points from 35 games. They are six points behind Celtic in the league table and will be looking to reduce that gap with a win on Sunday.

Dundee United have had mixed results of late in their push for European football. However, they returned to winning ways last weekend as they beat Motherwell 1-0, with Manchester United loanee Dylan Levitt scoring the sole goal of the game.

The visitors sit fourth in the league standings with 44 points. They will now be looking to build on their latest result when they take on one of the league's powerhouses at the weekend.

The two sides last faced off in a league clash earlier this season, with that game ending 1-1.

Rangers vs Dundee United Prediction

Rangers are unbeaten in their last four domestic games. They have lost just one game on home turf all year and will be relishing their chances ahead of the weekend clash.

Dundee United's latest result ended a three-game winless streak but marked just their second victory in their last 10 games. The home side should win this one.

Prediction: Rangers 3-1 Dundee United
