Motherwell vs Rangers prediction 24.12.2023

• Competition: Scottish Premiership
• Date: 24th December 2023
• Kickoff: 12:00 UTC / 13:00 CET
• Venue: Fir Park

Rangers will be looking to leapfrog leaders Celtic in the Scottish Premiership standings with a win this weekend when they take on Motherwell away from home.

The hosts finished the first half of last season in 8th place, but they have gone from bad to worse this term. Stuart Kettlewell's side are in the bottom two and have not won in fourteen consecutive league games, losing eight and drawing six.

Rangers have been cooking with gas in recent weeks. Philippe Clement's side enter this weekend's game on the back of six straight wins, scoring 12 goals and conceding just three. With Rangers also having a good record against Motherwell - five wins from their last five matches - they go into Sunday's game as clear favourites.

Motherwell vs Rangers Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals

Motherwell's defence has been far from perfect this season, especially at home. The hosts are without a clean sheet in their last nine home fixtures across all competitions and shipped at least two goals in five of their last six encounters. Bets on more than 2.5 goals won in just as many games.

Rangers meanwhile boast two clean sheets from their last two fixtures but both matches were on home soil. On the road, Clement's men have kept a clean sheet in just two of their last five games. Rangers' defensive record against Motherwell away is also poor, having failed to keep a clean sheet in each of the last six games at this venue. Just one of those games ended with under 2.5 goals.

• Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
• Motherwell vs Rangers prediction: 1-3
