Miller out for Gers

Rangers will be without striker Kenny Miller for Sunday’s Old Firm derby after he failed to overturn his red card against Dundee United.

Madjid Bougherra will also miss the Clydesdale Bank Premier League trip to Celtic Park after joining up with the rest of the Algeria squad ahead of the African Nations Cup, paving the way for Danny Wilson’s return to the first team.

Nacho Novo and Sasa Papac are both struggling with a sickness bug, while Kevin Thomson, DaMarcus Beasley and Steven Naismith are likely to remain on the sidelines.

Provisional squad: McGregor, Papac, Smith, Weir, Broadfoot, Davis, McCulloch, Novo, Whittaker, Lafferty, Boyd, Little, Edu, Fleck, Wilson, Alexander, Ness, Loy.
