    Alistair Johnston returns at right-back for Celtic

    Alistair Johnston makes his first appearance since last season's Scottish Cup final as the fit-again Canada right-back replaces Anthony Ralston in one of four changes made by Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers after last weekend's 1-0 defeat by Kilmarnock.

    For Liam Scales, it is his first Celtic start since February 2022 after spending last season on loan to Aberdeen and he benefits from an injury to recent centre-half signing Maik Nawrocki.

    South Korea forward Yang Hyeon-Jun makes his first Celtic start in place of Liel Abada, while David Turnbull returns to midfield as Odin Holm drops to the bench.

    We'll provide reaction from Dingwall as we get it, but for now let's turn our attention to the remainder of today's Premiership action.

  4. FULL-TIME: Ross County 0-2 Rangerspublished at 14:22 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    Job done for Rangers.

    The damage was done in the first half thanks to Kemar Roofe and James Tavernier.

    A first away win of the season puts Michael Beale's side top for at least the next couple of hours.

    That should be that.

    Jordan White is done for a foul in the Rangers half with the clock hitting 94.

    Kyle Turner's long ball eventually drops for Jordan White, who swings a leg at it.

    It's easy enough for Jack Butland though.

    James Tavernier lines it up but bends the ball straight into the wall.

    He's better than that.

    Rabbi Matondo shows his flair again and wins a free-kick just on the edge of the box.

    Kyle Turner takes a card for it.

    Yan Dhanda attempts an ambitious one, trying to beat Jack Butland from about halfway.

    Not the worst effort.

    Abdallah Sima, that's superb defending.

    The Rangers striker nods the ball behind, denying Will Nightingale a certain goal at the back post.

    Ross County 0-2 Rangers

    Rabbi Matondo races down the left and it opens up for the Rangers winger.

    He either has to hit the target or roll it to Abdallah Sima.

    In the end, he does neither and it trickles wide.

    Rangers seek a third to seal it.

    Danilo makes a yard for a shot but Ross Laidlaw pushes it wide.

    Meanwhile, the away side make their final sub as Ryan Jack replaces Nico Raskin.

    It's hit well by Yan Dhanda, but no-one can get a touch on it.

    Jack Butland holds it with ease.

    Ten minutes to go in Dingwall.

    A chance for County to lump the ball into the Rangers box from a free-kick...
