The Story in 60 Seconds

Kris Boyd says Rangers manager Derek McInnes will face a welcome selection headache as injured attacking options return to fitness. Strikers Ryan Naderi and £9 million summer signing Kevin Kelsy have formed a successful partnership during the absence of captain Lawrence Shankland and Youssef Chermiti, contributing to five consecutive victories.

Boyd supports McInnes' two-striker system, noting it provides Rangers with physical presence and defensive stability, highlighted by a recent 3-1 win over Kilmarnock where Naderi scored twice. Rangers sit four points behind Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic with a game in hand heading into the international break.
