Rangers -1
We won a 9/1 Bet Builder on Tuesday night thanks to Rangers’ late comeback at Aberdeen and we’re back for more.
This time, Rangers travel to Ross County as Michael Beale looks to continue his winning run in charge (or win his third consecutive game 3-2 if that’s what he’s after).
It’s tough to get a win at Aberdeen but Ross County look there for the taking for Rangers. They have the second-worst home form in the league having lost five of their nine games, winning just two in that period.
They’ve also conceded 18 goals (two per game) at home, including a 5-0 battering by Motherwell earlier in the season.
Rangers have won their two games under Beale and they’ll be desperate to make it three to keep the pressure on Celtic. It’s not worth getting behind Rangers to Win at the price so we’re signing with Rangers -1 on the Handicap betting.
Over 3.5 Goals
Whatever you think about Rangers under Beale, no one can argue that they aren’t entertaining.
Rangers’ last two games under the former QPR boss have averaged five goals, with both games ending in 3-2 wins.
They obviously have the firepower to blow away any team in the Scottish Premiership but Rangers are also shaky at the back – the perfect recipe for Overs!
Instead of Over 2.5 Goals, we’re pushing the boat out and going Over 3.5 Goals. It’s landed in the last two and Ross County have the third-worst defence in the league having conceded 28 times in 17 games this season.

Alfredo Morelos to Score Anytime
We’re expecting Rangers to dominate a goal fest on Friday night so we may as well get on a couple of goalscorer picks, right?
Alfredo Morelos has started both games under Beale after getting limited game time prior to that, with the 26-year-old scoring against Hibs before blanking against Aberdeen in the week.
Morelos averages just under two shots per game and he’s had three shots on target in his last two outings.
The Colombian will be getting his match fitness back and he is always a handful. Morelos to Score Anytime makes plenty of sense.
Fashion Sakala to Score Anytime
Next up is Fashion Sakala to Score Anytime.
Sakala has scored in Beale’s first two games against Hibs and Aberdeen – and he can make it three from three on Friday night.
He had five shots against Hibs and he followed that up with four efforts against Aberdeen. Those numbers are with him playing just 65 and 58 minutes respectively.
He’s not afraid to test the keeper and he’ll continue doing so at Ross County.
