Rangers prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Ibrox Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 79 of the 99 contests.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ibrox Stadium was less than a year ago, in May 2007, with Kilmarnock inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the The Gers in a Scottish Premier match.
