Rangers travel to to Cyprus to take on Aris Limassol in the second match of their Europa League group.

The match represents the first match of the post-Michael Beale era, after the Englishman was sacked late on Sunday night following a poor start to the campaign, with Steven Davis leading an interim management team for this away tie.

But he comes into this with a squad both drained of confidence, as well as dealing with a ever mounting injury list.

Thankfully, Davis has both Nico Raskin and Kemar Roofe back available for selection as he looks to steady the ship ahead of the international break where a new permanent boss should be appointed.

With that being said, here are the Inside Ibrox team’s predicted line ups for Rangers vs Aris Limassol.
