  1. Tune into Sportscene laterpublished at 17:07 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    That's enough from me. Look out for reaction from Steven Gerrard and Gary Holt on the site.

    Make sure you tune into Sportscene for highlights from today's action.

    We had six goals at Pittodrie, including three penalties, as Aberdeen and Celtic shared the spoils.

    And you have to see Jermain Defoe's goal in a comfortable win for Rangers. He makes a fiendishly difficult finish look so easy.

    The programme starts at 19:15 GMT on BBC Scotland, with Michael Stewart and Richard Foster the guests.

    FT: Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Before that, there's more Europa League action to come on Thursday, with Rangers at home to Lech Poznan and Celtic away to Lille.

  3. Rangers can pull away furtherpublished at 16:59 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    FT: Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Rangers are in very good place right now, unbeaten domestically and in Europe this season and with a healthy lead at the top of the league.

    Steven Gerrard's side can extend that advantage to nine points next weekend when they visit Kilmarnock since Celtic will be involved in a delayed Scottish Cup semi-final with Aberdeen.

  4. FULL-TIME Rangers 2-0 Livingstonpublished at 16:53 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers move six points clear at the top of the Premiership thanks to first-half goals from Joe Aribo and Jermain Defoe.

    The second half won't live long in the memory but it's job done and another clean sheet for Steven Gerrard's men.

    Livingston stay ninth in the table, level on points with Motherwell above them and St Johnstone below them.

    Jordan Jones with a rising shot from near the edge of the penalty area and Max Stryjek sticks up a paw to tip it over.

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:48 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Ryan Jack sends Matej Poplatnik up in the air with a very aggressive challenge on the touchline and the Rangers midfielder can have no complaints about that booking.

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Jordan Jones is in behind the visitors' defence and racing in on goal but Nicky Devlin manages to keep up and puts in a strong sliding tackle to stop the Rangers winger in his tracks.

  8. Postpublished at 16:44 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Livingston striker Jay Emmanuel-Thomas trudges off to be replaced by Matej Poplatnik.

    Emmanuel-Thomas is a big unit but he didn't really cause the home defence any problems.

    Rangers are just a few minutes away from a 13th clean sheet of the season. Not bad at all from 16 outings.

  9. Postpublished at 16:41 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    With the clock ticking past 82 minutes, Jordan Jones is on for Ianis Hagi in what will be Rangers' final change.

  10. ouch!

    Ouch!published at 16:38 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Former Rangers player Jason Holt takes a sore one flush in the face as Calvin Bassey toe-ends an attempted clearance right at him.

  11. Double switch for Rangerspublished at 16:32 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Two more changes for Rangers as Scott Arfield and Cedric Itten take over from Ryan Kent and Joe Aribo.

  12. Postpublished at 16:29 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Livingston replacement Alan Forrest finds room for a shot as he cuts into the penalty area from the left but the angled effort is weak and Allan McGregor gets down to cut it out.

  13. Postpublished at 16:27 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    It's all a bit drab at the moment. Steven Gerrard might want to see a bit more zip from his team, who are kind of going through the motions with their two-goal cushion.

    Livingston have been putting up a much improved fight since the interval though.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:26 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Jon Guthrie is cautioned for a late challenge on Ianis Hagi.

    Moments before, Livingston brought on Alan Forrest for Craig Sibbald.

  15. Roofe on for Defoepublished at 16:22 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Kemar Roofe is on for Rangers, taking the place of Jermain Defoe up front.

    Roofe should be full of confidence after his stunning, long-range goal in Liege on Thursday.

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Scott Pittman does well to get to a cross before Connor Goldson since he is giving away quite a bit of height in that contest, but the Livingston midfielder can only skew a header wide of the target.

  17. Postpublished at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Ryan Kent scoops an inviting, angled cross in from the left but the ball skips up off the turf and just evades Rangers skipper James Tavernier at the back post.

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Rangers have taken their foot off the gas a bit here, with no sign of their first-half fluency yet.

  19. Postpublished at 16:08 Greenwich Mean Time 25 October 2020

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    Now Livingston win a free kick in a central location 22 yards out. Jay Emmanuel-Thomas has a pop but it's a terrible effort from the big striker, sailing into the empty Broomloan Stand.

    Rangers 2-0 Livingston

    A couple of corners for Livingston but both are repelled by the home defence.
