What is the latest team news?

Newcastle kicked off their pre-season schedule with a 3-2 win at non-league neighbours Gateshead on Saturday lunchtime. A whole host of international players missed the game after representing their countries during the summer but that means they could come into contention for the game at Ibrox. That means the likes of Bruno Guimaraes, Sven Botman and Joelinton could all make their first appearances of pre-season and there could be a debut for summer signing Sandro Tonali.

A number of Rangers summer signings will have a chance to walk out at Ibrox for the first time after Michael Beale added the likes of Kieran Dowell, Sam Lammers and Cyriel Dessers to his squad. It is expected Rangers stalwart Alan McGregor will start his testimonial in goal but will be replaced by summer signing Jack Butland.
