Rangers Premier Sports Cup

Viaplay Cup Final Key Players - Rangers

Who will be vital for the Light Blues at Hampden?

Jack Butland

One of the top signings of the summer, Jack Butland has proven to be a leading performer for Philippe Clement’s men.

The Englishman sits top of the cinch Premiership clean sheet list with 10 from his 16 league matches.

Capable of pulling off some eye-catching saves and commanding his penalty area, Butland has seamlessly stepped into the shoes vacated by Allan McGregor.

James Tavernier

Rangers’ captain contributed a vital double in the semi-final victory over Heart of Midlothian.

The defender has since scored a further three goals from the penalty spot as well as creating Abdallah Sima’s winner at Tynecastle.

Tavernier is forming a promising partnership with Ross McCausland down the right flank and this area could be key to the destination of the trophy.

Abdallah Sima

The on-loan Brighton forward has become a crucial cog in the Rangers attack after finding his feet at Ibrox.

Sima has scored in all three of Rangers’ league victories in December and sits level at the top of the cinch Premiership scoring chart with nine goals, alongside Celtic’s Matt O’Riley.

With Danilo ruled out through injury, Sima’s ability to support Cyriel Dessers or Kemar Roofe in attack is critical to Clement’s system.
