Rangers and Dundee United square off in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday

Rangers will welcome Dundee United to Ibrox Stadium in their upcoming Scottish Premiership fixture on Saturday, looking to return to winning ways.

The hosts have lost three games in a row and have failed to score in these losses. In their previous league outing earlier this month, they fell to a 4-0 defeat against Old Firm rivals Celtic.

It was their first defeat of the season and in their subsequent two UEFA Champions League group stage games, they fell to 4-0 and 3-0 defeats to Ajax and Napoli respectively.

Dundee United are the only team in the Scottish Premiership without a win after six games, playing out a couple of draws and losing four games. They played out a goalless draw against Motherwell last time around.


Rangers vs Dundee United Head-to-Head

The two teams have a long-standing rivalry and have crossed paths 191 times across all competitions. As expected, the home team have dominated the proceedings against their northern rivals. They have 107 wins to their name while the visitors have picked up 40 wins and 43 games have ended in draws.

The Gers are winless at home in league fixtures since 2011, though Dundee United picked up a 3-1 win in the Scottish FA Cup at Ibrox in 2014. Last season, Rangers picked up wins in both their meetings.
