    Another win over Rangers would certainly be welcome for Dundee.

    Prior to last week's draw with Kilmarnock, Neil McCann's men lost five in a row, with their last win coming against Hearts in late September.

    Rangers, of course, are still in the process of appointing a new manager to replace Pedro Caixinha and Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes has been heavily linked with the post.

    But, today, the former Ibrox midfielder reiterated the words of his Aberdeen chairman from earlier this week by insisting: "I'm happy here, I said that all along. This is where I see myself."

    Graeme Murty's second spell as Rangers interim manager had got off to a fine start with wins over Hearts and Partick Thistle.

    However, he and the Ibrox side were brought back down to earth with a sobering 2-0 home defeat by Hamilton Academical last weekend.

    After tonight, it's a double-header against second-placed Aberdeen and Rangers will be eager to get back to winning ways.

    Dundee 2-1 Rangers

    Dundee do not need to look too far back for their last victory over Rangers. Mark O'Hara and Kevin Holt scored to give them a 2-1 win at Dens Park nine months ago.

    Joe Garner, now with Ipswich Town, replied in the second half for Rangers, who were being managed on an interim basis by Graeme Murty - as they are now.

    The season's first meeting of Rangers and Dundee at Ibrox proved to be a comfortable win for the hosts, with Alfredo Morelos scoring twice in a 4-1 victory.

    Josh Windass and Carlos Pena were also on target in Glasgow.

    Striker Morelos scored again the following weekend against Partick Thistle but has not hit the net since.

    Dundee manager Neil McCann refused to be drawn on the future of Scott Bain earlier this week.

    Bain, 26, has been absent for two games and does not feature in the squad this evening following a disagreement with McCann.

    Dundee bring in Josh Meekings at centre-back for suspended captain Darren O'Dea, but otherwise manager Neil McCann keeps the same side that ended a five-match losing run with last week's 0-0 draw with Kilmarnock.

    Rangers also make just one change from the side beaten 2-0 at home by Hamilton Academical.

    Welshman Declan John returns at left-back after missing that game with illness, Lee Hodson making way. Carlos Pena returns on the bench.
