Darcheville misses another UEFA clash

Rangers will be without Jean-Claude Darcheville for tomorrow’s UEFA Cup last-16 match against Werder Bremen.

The striker completes a three-match European suspension when the Germans visit Ibrox for the first leg.

Darcheville’s absence could pave the way for the introduction of Daniel Cousin, who remains at Ibrox for the remainder of the season after FIFA blocked a proposed move to Fulham.

Manager Walter Smith has no fresh injuries to contend with ahead of the tie.

Provisional squad: McGregor, Broadfoot, Papac, Weir, Cuellar, Novo, Ferguson, Hemdani, Davis, Adam, Boyd, Alexander, McCulloch, Whittaker, Burke, Naismith, Cousin, Dailly.
