Key Rangers Star Set To Face Late Fitness Test Ahead Of Braga Clash

Rangers left-back Borna Barisic remains a doubt for the Europa League game against Braga, according to the Scottish Sun.

The Croatian international has missed the last two games with a hip problem, and while the injury is said to be improving, he is still touch and go for the match at Ibrox.

Barisic will face a late fitness test to see whether he can make the starting eleven, but there is a feeling that the 27-year-old will not be risked if he is not 100% fit.

The defender has become a key player for the Light Blues this campaign, having scored two goals and provided 14 assists in 33 appearances, and manager Steven Gerrard has struggled to find a suitable replacement.


Andy Halliday has been deputising in the left-back’s absence but he did not impress in the 2-1 defeat to Kilmarnock last week. Fans will be hoping that Barisic is ready to make his comeback on Thursday night.
