Live Reporting

  1. Roofe and Barker given Rangers chance

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Rangers have also made a double change, with Ianis Hagi and Scott Arfield being withdrawn.

    On go summer signing Kemar Roofe, the former Anderlecht striker, and winger Brandon Barker.

  2. Poplatnik and Crawford on for Livi

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Livingston make a double change, with midfielder Robbie Crawford and striker Matej Poplatnik coming on.

    Marvin Bartley and young striker Jack Hamilton are withdrawn.

  3. GREAT SAVE!

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Just as I was asking that question, Alfredo Morelos sends Ryan Kent away with a looping pass over the Livi backline.

    The winger cuts inside and unleashes a shot that is beat away by goalkeeper Max Stryjek.

    Morelos then has a sight at goal but squeezes his low drive from just outside the penalty box wide of target.

  4. Where's Morelos?

    Richard Foster
    Partick Thistle defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    If I was both Tavernier and Barisic and I'm putting in the crosses they are, I'm expecting someone to get on the end of one. They are great quality

  5. Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    The game is going the way of the first half - all the possession and pressure coming from Rangers but Livingston dealing with it all fairly comfortably.

  6. Rangers' title aspirations under question

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Richard Foster
    Partick Thistle defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    If Rangers have serious aspirations of winning this league this season and stopping Celtic, which they do, these are the types of games they need to find a way to win

  7. KICK-OFF

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Livingston get the second 45 minutes under way and immediately have a rare foray into the Rangers half.

  8. Missing link

  9. If you go down to the woods...

    HT: Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Fans in the woods outside the stadiumPA Media

    Rangers' manager and players are not the only ones left frustrated.

    A few fans have been prevented by police from getting a sneaky peak at the action via the woods outside Tony Macaroni Arena.

  10. 'Massive test now for Rangers'

    HT: Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Tom English
    BBC Scotland's chief sports writer

    This is a massive test now for Rangers. Are they good enough to break this team down? It's games like this that will determine whether they have the mental capacity to win like this

  11. Rangers lacking penetration

    HT: Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Richard Foster
    Partick Thistle defender on BBC Radio Scotland

    Rangers aren't doing enough to upset Livi's defensive shape

  12. 'What if Dykes had started?'

    HT: Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Radio Scotland

    I do wonder what would have happened today if Lyndon Dykes played. Jack Hamilton has done well, but I think Filip Helander has looked a bit shaky

  13. HALF-TIME Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Rangers are half way to a slip up in their attempt to make the most of Celtic's inactivity because of Covid-19 lockdown breaches.

    Steven Gerrard's side have had more than 70% of possession, but the visitors have not had a single effort on target.

    Livingston are defending admirably as they look for an unlikely point considering they are without star striker Lyndon Dykes, who was left out of the squad with a transfer to QPR pending.

    Rangers' Ryan Kent is trippedSNS

  14. Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    James Tavernier finds the head of Filip Helander from the corner, but the big Swede is under pressure and his effort is well over the crossbar.

  15. Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Into two minutes of stoppage time and a low James Tavernier cross is turned wide by Jack McMillan for a Rangers corner.

  16. Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Just as we note that, Marvin Bartley lopes forward after evading a weak tackle from Filip Helander.

    The former Hibs midfielder is not used to being so close to goal and, as he strides into the penalty box, his speculative low cross is cut out by Rangers' Scott Arfield.

  17. Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Four minutes from half-time and Livingston have yet to touch the ball in Rangers' penalty box.

    On the other hand, Max Stryjek has yet to make a save as the goalkeeper makes his home debut.

  18. 'Game plan working for Livi'

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Radio Scotland

    Rangers haven't had a clear attempt at goal, so the game plan is working for Gary Holt. I wouldn't like to be a winger in this Livingston team, you spend most of your time at full-back

  19. Unhappy Helander

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Rangers defender Filip HelanderPA Media

    A touch of hilarity in the commentary position there as Filip Helander collapses on the turf.

    Another example of how the Sweden centre-half has not looked comfortable on the artificial surface.

  20. 'Livi vulnerable the longer they have the ball'

    Livingston 0-0 Rangers

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Radio Scotland

    The longer Livingston have the ball, the more their players get enticed forward and I think that's when they are at their most vulnerable
