Ross County will entertain Rangers at the Global Energy Stadium in their upcoming Scottish Premiership game on Friday.
The hosts resumed their Premiership campaign with a 2-1 home defeat against St. Johnstone last Saturday. Jordan White opened the scoring in the 22nd minute of the game but defender Jack Baldwin was sent off in the 61st minute. St. Johnstone made the most of their numerical advantage with substitute Ali Crawford scoring twice in as many minutes to overturn a one-goal deficit.
Rangers recorded an impressive 3-2 away win over Aberdeen in their previous outing, which was their second consecutive game that ended with that scoreline. They fell a goal behind in the 53rd minute but Scott Arfield scored twice deep in injury time to secure a dramatic win for the Glasgow giants.

Ross County vs Rangers Prediction
The Staggies have scored at least one goal in their last four home games and are expected to find the back of the net in this game as well. As they have never been able to defeat the visitors, a win for them looks unlikely.
The Gers recorded a 4-0 win when the two teams met in the reverse fixture at Ibrox Stadium and look to be in good touch at the moment. They have dominated proceedings against the hosts and, given their unbeaten run against their northern rivals, we expect them to secure a comfortable win.
