Rangers’ £11 million diamond has the potential to unseat Dessers.

Tomorrow, Rangers and Ayr United will play in the Scottish Cup at Ibrox.

This weekend, Glasgow Rangers will play a Scottish Cup match at Ibrox against Ayr United,

taking a break from Premiership action. With former Celtic captain Scott Brown leading the Honest Men,

the match will have much more significance, but the Light Blues should prevail handily.

Four days have passed since their vital top-flight victory against Aberdeen, and this suggests Philippe Clement

may alter his starting lineup for tomorrow’s game.

Cyriel Dessers, who performed poorly against the Dons, is one player who will be benched.

Against Aberdeen, Cyriel Dessers did not seize his opportunity.

Prior to the midweek meeting, the Nigerian striker had scored in three of his previous four games,

but he was mainly ineffectual in front of goal.

Dessers had a dismal performance overall, managing just 28 touches, winning 0 of his attempted duels,

and completing only 16 passes during the game.

After the winter break, it appeared as though he was getting back into shape, but the 29-year-old

This should indicate that Fabio Silva is free to start tomorrow, and it might be the perfect game for him

to score more goals.

Rangers need to unleash Fabio Silva against Ayr United.

Even though the Portuguese striker is only temporarily at Ibrox, in the coming weeks he has the potential

to become an important part of Clement’s squad.

Silva, who is reportedly valued at €12.8 million (£11 million) by Football Transfers, showed his class last

weekend by scoring an incredible first goal against Livingston.

Despite not being able to secure a spot in the starting lineup against the Dons, he had an opportunity

to perform when he replaced Dessers with just over half an hour left in the game.

The 21-year-old did appear to be much more dynamic than the striker he had replaced; he made a crucial

pass and was successful on two of his three dribbling attempts. He was also less isolated because of his

propensity to drop deep and link up with the midfielders.

Silva did had a final-minute opportunity to give the Gers a 3-1 lead, but his shot missed by the thinnest

of margins. In fact, Silva could have added the icing on top.

Acclaimed for his “infectious” training performances by colleague Connor Goldson, a strong showing

tomorrow against the lower tier could solidify his position as the starting striker for the upcoming weeks.

This is a great chance for Clement to spend some time with a range of bench players while he evaluates

who should be in his long-term plans and who shouldn’t.

The Belgian manager will have his team prepared going into the game, even if the Light Blues should

easily advance to the quarterfinals. However, they must avoid becoming complacent.

Their 13-year drought was broken when they last won the Scottish Cup in 2022, but the 49-year-old

will be itching to add the trophy to the League Cup, which is currently housed in the Ibrox trophy room.
