Sunday 11th April
Rangers v Hibernian
Goalkeeper - Benji Siegrist
Siegrist and Dundee United face Hamilton who haven't won in their last six league games. They are also the side with the least shots and shots on target this season, being the only team not to crack triple digits on the latter. Meaning there shouldn't be much for Siegrist to be troubled with today.
Defenders - Shaun Rooney, Jason Kerr, Connor Goldson, Borna Barisic, Jonjoe Kenny
St. Johnstone have recorded five clean sheets in their last six games. They face an Aberdeen team that have scored twice since the 23rd January. Both goals have come from Callum Hendry who is ineligible to face his parent club. Only one game non-old firm game game at McDiarmid Park has seen multiples goals this season.
Rangers have an incredible home record this season, conceding only two goals all season and winning every match. So it would be silly not to back them to continue that run.
Celtic have kept four clean sheets in their last six games and face a Livingston team that has struggled for form after David Martindale's hot start.
Midfielders - Callum McGregor, Jamie McGrath
Livingston have only won one of their last seven league games, Celtic should be able to take care of business and end a poor season on a positive note.
McGrath has 4 goals in his last four games and is the Buddies main attacking option.
Forwards - Kyle Lafferty, Odsonne Edouard, Devante Cole
Tommy Wright has an incredible post-split record, and with Kyle Lafferty is starting to catch on fire with six goals in his last three games, it looks likely to continue.
Livingston have failed to record a clean sheet in their last nine games in all competitions, so expect Odsonne Edouard to try and make in ten.
Devante Cole is Motherwell's top scorer this season with 8 and will look to fire his side up the table.
Scout XI
There was quite a few options for vice captain this week. Lafferty has a higher upside, but backing one of the defenders or Siegrist would be a lot safer of a pick.
Borna Barisic since Tavernier got injured has yet to get an attacking return and missing a penalty, but that form has to change at some point.
