Team news
Clement may be inclined to freshen up his squad following their European exploits against Lyon. Cyriel Dessers struggled up front last time out, which could maybe see Hamza Igamane brought in to lead the line.
Rangers are still without Danilo, Oscar Cortes, Rabbi Matondo and Ridvan Yilmaz for this match due to a variety of injury issues.
While Tom Lawrence's fitness remains a concern given he was substituted at half-time on Thursday.
In terms of St Johnstone, they will have to tackle this challenge without being able to call upon both Uche Ikpeazu and Sam McClelland.
