The 2016-17 Scottish Cup season continues with the fourth round. Among this upcoming schedule is a tie for Rangers against Motherwell at Ibrox on Saturday with it having a 12:30pm kick-off.

Rangers are back in domestic action following the winter break with it our aim now to go on and secure some silverware during the second half of the campaign. The Scottish Cup is of course our only chance now with Motherwell faced in round four.

Consolidation of 2nd place in the Premiership will be the intention as far as the league goes – Celtic are too far ahead to be caught – but another Scottish Cup win should be seen as a realistic prospect as we look to go one step further than last season when we lost in dramatic fashion to Hibernian in the final.

Rangers have twice beaten Motherwell season but that doesn’t mean we can assume – even with home advantage – the Gers will manage this for a third time without a challenge. This is a tie we’ll have to work very hard to come through and perhaps needs some luck too!

What will happen in this one though? Cast your vote so we know if you think it’ll be all smiles or disappointment for the Gers come the full time whistle.
