Rangers goalkeeper Robby McCrorie has been sidelined through injury.
The 24-year-old is the third-choice stopper at Ibrox behind Jon McLaughlin and Allan McGregor.
He has featured on the bench for Rangers in spells this season but has not played for the first-team this term.
Now, Michael Beale has revealed the keeper is currently working his way back from injury.
The keeper is expected to return to action in around two to three weeks time.
Beale confirmed: "Robby (McCrorie) is unfortunately injured and 2/3 weeks away from returning."

It comes after Beale admitted he would be "looking at the goalkeeper situation in the summer".
Veteran stopper McGregor is out of contract at the end of the season, as is McLaughlin - with McCrorie tied down to 2025.
Speaking previously, Beale said: "I would like us to add a midfielder to the squad that's powerful and can run. I would like to have another centre-half and we will be looking at the goalkeeper situation in the summer. We will be looking for another number nine.
