Rangers can move to the top of the Scottish Premiership table for the first time this season with a handsome win over Ross County at Ibrox in a rearranged fixture.

The Gers have been in formidable form in recent weeks, with Philippe Clement’s side turned into a well oiled winning machine, even if they are rarely producing fireworks as they get the job done. Not that the Rangers support is complaining as they bulldoze their way to victory after victory, with just a little polish missing in the final third at times.

On Saturday, Rangers moved easily past Ayr United in the Scottish Cup. The 2-0 victory typified the type of comfortable win that the Ibrox club are achieving match after match.

Ross County, meanwhile, are a club in crisis. The resignation of unpopular manager Derek Adams will certainly help them to some extent, yet interim boss Don Cowie has his work cut out to piece morale together in a squad that was left splintered by the former boss. With a high number of loan players signed by Adams in January, the commitment to the cause of some of the new faces will inevitably be questioned.

So a big home win is expected here, but will it play out that way?

🏆 Match stats: Value on County via handicap

Backing Rangers to win this match is an easy and obvious bet. Odds of 1.06 show just how hot favourites the hosts are, yet there is clearly little value in supporting the home side at this type of short price. Looking at the handicap betting offers more interesting possibilities – and actually favours supporting Ross County. After all, the Dingwall club have not lost any of their last three matches against Rangers by more than two goals. Against Celtic, too, they have also been reasonably competitive this season, losing 4-2 and 1-0 away from home. Given that, the visitors will come into this game motivated by a managerial change and Rangers are likely to preserve their energy in what is a busy period, backing Ross County with a +3.5 handicap looks a smart move at 1.3 while they are 1.83 with a +2.5 handicap. The +3.5 handicap means that Rangers must win by 4 goals or more for this leg not to land, three goals or more for the +2.5 handicap not to land. Meanwhile, Ross County have scored in five of their last eight matches with Rangers, making both teams to score at 2.88 a legitimate possibility. The Gers have conceded in three of their last five home matches against relatively modest opponents.

Predictions:

⚽ Ross County (+3.5) handicap @ 1.30

🟨 Cards stats: Overs markets intrigue us

Cards should be expected in this encounter, with Ross County picking up a high number of bookings in the Premiership this season. The Highlanders have seen 50 cautions this season in 23 games – averaging close to 2.5 per game. In this game, meanwhile, they will be particularly eager to make an impression following the departure of Adams, and that could mean an overzealous approach. Ross County to receive more cards than their hosts at 1.57 looks like promising value. More than four bookings, meanwhile, also looks a good price at 1.83. Referee Alan Muir is averaging around 3.5 cards per game this season in the Premiership and has overseen these teams play four times already this term. In these encounters, there have been four cards on three occasions and three yellows on the other. When these teams met previously this season, there were four cautions, with County picking up three and Rangers having one.

Predictions:

⚽ Ross County to receive most cards @ 1.57

⚽ Over 3.5 total cards @ 1.83

🚩 Corners stats: Gers to hit their par

Rangers are extremely short-priced with regards to the corner count for Wednesday’s fixture. The Gers typically win a shade over 6 corners per match, while Ross County concede on average the same number. It’s worth backing over these figures in this encounter, with the Rangers stats showing that at home they boast 7.5 corners per game on average. The Gers should be expected to reach this number in this fixture, though odds of 1.50 of them to win at least 8 corners are not particularly generous. Ross County, meanwhile, do carry a threat going the other way, at least comparatively so. In their away matches, they are averaging 4.75 corners per game. An average performance from them on this front is priced at 2.70. With Rangers conceding 3.58 flag kicks in a typical Premiership match, this is a value that is interesting, with County to win over 3 corners at 1.67 looking appealing. With these figures, it is little surprise that Rangers are 1.04 to win the Corner Match Bet, but while that feels like something of a formality, those odds are not worth backing.

Predictions:

⚽ Over 7.5 Rangers corners @ 1.50

⚽ Over 2.5 Ross County corners @ 1.67
