SPFL1 Play-Offs SF2, Saturday 23/05/2015 : Hibernian v Rangers, KO 12:00 hours, BT Sport.
With the 2-0 advantage from the first leg, do Rangers stick or twist ?
Personally I would go for twist, using the best means of defence is attack approach.

It's a tough call. Hibs looked most likely to hurt us on the counter tonight and it would make sense to sit tight and nullify that that while trying to pick them off on counters of our own. But they are capable of playing through us too, so it would be risky to try to soak up pressure for 90 minutes. I know how Walter would have played it, I know how Ally would have played it, I don't know how McCall will play it.

I'm not sure who it'll be but I definitely agree there'll be some changes in the personnel we start with. It'll be our third game in six days and we kept the same XI for the first two. We might see Walsh come back in to give us some pace on the break. I'd say there's also a good chance McCulloch will be brought back in as a third central defender.

Is Bell wearing ankle weights? I've never seen such a static keeper since Rough at the 82 world cup!

I think we'll score first and knock the wind out of them. Lets face it, if we can't carry the tie with a 2-0 lead we dont deserve to progress.
McCall seems to have Stubbs' are well and truly marked and that will continue.
I've notice that Vuckic is handy with defensive headers but never challenges for an aerial ball in midfield or attacking third.
