Rangers v Hearts: Two players likely to miss SPFL clash

December 5, 2023 Jude Sports 0

The Scottish media outlet have reported on 4 December, that the medical staff at Hearts are keeping a close eye on Liam Boyce and that he’ll need to pass a late fitness test in order to be fit.

Kenneth Vargas has only an outside chance of being fit for the game as he missed the weekend’s match due to an ankle injury.

Despite Celtic’s current eight-point lead, Rangers have reasons to be positive heading into the game against Hearts.

The Edinburgh outfit themselves are dealing with potential player absences, particularly Boyce and Vargas, offering Gers an opportunity to exploit any vulnerabilities in their opponent’s lineup.

Additionally, Philippe Clement must view this game as a crucial opportunity to close the gap on Celtic in the SPFL standings.

A victory not only secures three valuable points but also serves as a statement of intent, showcasing Rangers’ determination to challenge for the title.

With Hearts potentially missing key players, the Ibrox outfit will aim to capitalise on this situation, especially given the intensity and unpredictability of football.

In the context of the title race, every match becomes pivotal and dropping points could further widen the gap – which is the last thing Clement or anyone associated with Rangers would want.

Rangers must approach the game with a sense of urgency, making it imperative to secure a win against Hearts to keep their title ambitions alive and maintain pressure on Celtic.
