Rangers travel to rock bottom Derby County on Saturday in what will be a much tougher trip than the league table suggests. Depending on other results the West Londoners could rise to third place this weekend but will have their work cut out against the whole-hearted Rams.

County have beaten Bournemouth and earned a draw at Fulham in their last two outings and will be pushing for back-to-back home wins when Warburton's men arrive at Pride Park.

The Verdict

 

 

Barbet has been a figure that has split opinion at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium in recent years and has come on leaps and bounds with the freedom of Warburton's three at the back system this term. In combination with Jimmy Dunne, Rob Dickie and Jordy De Wijs, Rangers have put together a reliable backline that has consistently built a platform for the likes of Ilias Chair, Chris Willock and Lyndon Dykes to strut their stuff in the final third this season.

Finishing outside of the play-off places could be deemed a failure come the end of the season which is credit to how much Rangers have improved after achieving just two top half finishes in their six second tier campaigns since relegation from the Premier League.
