Michael Beale has revealed that his Rangers side is nursing a couple of injuries heading into tomorrow's game against Livingston.

The Ibrox club are facing a busy couple of weeks with matches both domestically and in Europe.

And ahead of Saturday's fixture against Livi at Ibrox, Beale has explained how there could be enforced changes to his side.

He said: "We have one or two bumps and bruises. We just have to assess now.

"One or two will miss out. I am not going to give you any names, or I am not going to give Davie (Martindale) any names.

"There are one or two that we will need to protect this weekend.

"They have one or two things niggling in the background."

Beale also explained how new signing Jose Cifuentes will likely make his first start for Rangers against Livingston.

On his cameo display against Servette in the Champions League, he said: "He is playing tomorrow.

"He is a prime example. He didn't get in until late on the Thursday before but I wanted to get him on the bench, just so he could see Scottish football.

"Eight subs, let's just get him there so he can understand the environment.

"He just moved into his new place the last couple of days, so he has been in and out of a hotel.

"I thought he was quite good when he came on the other night in the small glimpse.

"Now I think he is ready. He has been playing since January, he knows his teammates.

"There is ever such a small language barrier because he speaks decent enough English, and he is ready to go now.

"I am looking forward to watching him tomorrow."
