Defensive worry for Rangers

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Rangers have concerns over three defenders for their trip to Hearts today. Craig Moore is definitely out, after damaging his hamstring during their CIS Insurance Cup semi-final win over Celtic on Tuesday. Lorenzo Amoruso will play despite having five stitches in a thigh wound in midweek, while Tony Vidmar (ankle) is doubtful.
Hearts will be without Alan Maybury. The defender should have completed his two-match suspension against Dunfermline, but Hearts played him in that match after the SFA forgot to inform the Edinburgh club he was not eligible. He completes his suspension today.
The Canadian defender Kevin McKenna will return to the side after playing for his country in the Gold Cup.
Meanwhile the Celtic pair Chris Sutton, out since Boxing Day with an ankle injury, and Didier Agathe, out since November with damaged knee ligaments, showed no reaction to their injuries after the midweek defeat by Rangers and are set to face Dunfermline at Parkhead.
Dunfermline will be without the injured trio of goalkeeper Marco Ruitenbeek, Ian Ferguson and the on-loan winger Sean Kilgannon.
Livingston have been boosted by the return of their French defender Philippe Brinquin from injury and he joins the squad to face Dundee United at Almondvale.
