Livingston vs Rangers: Clement hands McCausland first start

Livingston and Rangers have named their starting line-ups for their Premiership clash at Almondvale.

Philippe Clement has made four changes from their 2-1 Europa League win over Sparta Prague with youngster Ross McCausland handed his first start.

Leon Balogun, Cyriel Dessers and Tom Lawrence have also been brought into the side with Ben Davies, Todd Cantwell, Sam Lammers and Danilo all dropping out.

David Martindale has made five changes from their 1-0 defeat to Dundee last weekend.

He has brought Shamal George, Mo Sangare, Christian Montano, Luiyi De Lucas and Bruce Anderson in from the start.

Hamilton, Welch-Hayes, Holt, Lloyd and Stephen Kelly all drop out.

The home team start with George in goals behind Montano, Devlin, Sean Kelly, Penrice, and De Lucas, with Shinnie, Pittman and Sangare in midfield looking to supply the ammunition to Nouble and Anderson up top.

Rangers start with Butland in goals, a back four of Tavernier, Goldson, Balogun and Barisic, a midfield three of Ryan Jack, John Lundtsram and Tom Lawrence and a front three of Sima, McCausland and Dessers.

The game kicks off in West Lothian at 12 as Rangers look to cut the gap at the top of the league to five points ahead of Celtic’s game against Aberdeen later on Sunday.

At the other end of the table Livingston are hoping to get the points that will take them off the bottom.
