The visiting Rangers side should be favourites in this visit to Motherwell, as the away team holds a 47 point advantage from their 23 league games this season.
- Motherwell has the most dropped points from leading position (11) in Premiership
- Rangers has the most scored goals (59) in Premiership
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Motherwell form and stats
Motherwell's struggle is real here at Fir Park with only 8 points collected from 11 Premiership games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-2-7. All in all it has been a very rough period for Motherwell who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Livingston, 77 days ago.
Motherwell manager G. Alexander and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus St. Mirren (placed 8th) in the Premiership. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Hamilton Academical (0-3).
The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Rangers to win. Let's see if Motherwell are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: four games found revealing zero Motherwell wins, one draw and three defeats.
Motherwell have scored 9 league goals here from 11 matches, not a lot. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 19 goals have been conceded.
Rangers form and stats
Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Rangers so far, with 10-2-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Premiership statistics. Impressively, the visitors are on a 15-match winning run which they hope continue versus Motherwell. A great winning streak in away games for Rangers as they have managed to win eight matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Hibernian have they travelled home without three points.
It's the second away game in a row for Rangers, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Aberdeen (placed 3rd) in the Premiership last time out. A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Celtic.
As mentioned earlier, Rangers will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 18 wins (14 by two or more goals winning margin), two draws and one surprising defeat.
Rangers have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 26 goals from 12 away matches. The Rangers defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (5 goals in 12 games).
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Rangers - Motherwell 3-1 earlier this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's zero Motherwell victories, two draws and eight Rangers wins. Over/under statistics; eight of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
