Rangers form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat from two matches. The fact that Rangers have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting. Rangers has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

The supporters enjoyed Rangers's previous game versus Midtjylland, a Europa League 3-1 win played at home. A home win before that, celebrating 6-1 vs Hibernian.

2 goals so far away for Rangers, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: St. Mirren won 1, Rangers won 8 and 1 draw. 6 games with over 2,5 goals, 4 matches with two goals or less.
