Rangers vs Ross County Prediction: Motivated Rangers are unstoppable

Rangers aim to maintain their impressive form in the Scottish Premiership as they face Ross County at Ibrox Stadium on Wednesday evening. The hosts, following their Christmas Eve victory at Fir Park, have narrowed the gap to rivals Celtic and are within striking distance. Meanwhile, the visitors, currently positioned third from the bottom, enter this match on the back of consecutive defeats.

Rangers, coming off a recent victory, aspire for a similar outcome after their 0-2 Premiership success against Motherwell. In that match, Rangers controlled possession with 53% and registered 14 attempts on goal, with 6 on target. Kieran Dowell (4') and Todd Cantwell (16') scored the goals for Rangers, while Motherwell had 7 attempts at goal, none of which were on target. Rangers have been consistently scoring, finding the back of the net in each of their last 6 games, amassing a total of 12 goals during that period while conceding only 3. Heading into this contest, Rangers maintain an undefeated record in their last 5 home league matches.

Ross County will enter this fixture well-rested, as their weekend match against Hibernian was called off due to officials deeming the pitch at Global Energy Stadium unplayable. Despite a promising start under new manager Derek Adams, who took over from Malky Mackay last month, with three clean sheets in his first three matches, the team is now on the brink of a third consecutive league defeat. The Staggies have accumulated 17 points in as many games this season and will go into this match after back-to-back losses against St. Mirren and Dundee, failing to score in either game. Adding to the challenge, Ross County's head-to-head record heavily favors their opponents, and they have struggled in their last six away league games, securing only one victory on the road this season.

The odds strongly favor the Gers, and they will be eager for a decisive performance, especially with the Glasgow Derby approaching. In summary, I anticipate the hosts securing a straightforward victory in this match.
