Having secured the Premiership title at the third time of asking, Steven Gerrard is intent on doing the same in the Scottish Cup.

To clinch the double would be a fitting way to end this season and Rangers campaign gets underway this Sunday at Ibrox.

The last time that the Scottish Cup came back to Ibrox was 2009 – that long wait is due to end.

Broadcasters Premier Sports have announced their coverage for the third round tie against Cove Rangers.

The build-up will begin at 6pm ahead of kick-off, 30 minutes later.

Against League One opposition, Rangers are overwhelming favourites and should progress to the 4th round.

Gerrard is likely to utilise his squad for this game, with the likes of Jon McLaughlin, Jack Simpson, Bongani Zungu, Scott Wright, Cedric Itten and Jermain Defoe coming into contention for a start.

Rangers won’t take the Aberdeen based side lightly but if they apply themselves correctly, there should only be one outcome.

With the international window ending tonight, focus will return to the club scene from tomorrow and the games at the weekend.

VitalRangers will have more on the preparation to this game, as it comes closer to the weekend.
