Rangers are fully focused on the league after being knocked out of Europe and domestic cup competitions.
With just five games left and it being so tight at the top, wins are so precious at this stage of the season.
The Gers have developed a winning habit recently under Danny Rohl, picking up maximum points from their last four matches.
On home soil, they will be confident of getting the job done again against a vulnerable Motherwell side.
Indeed, the visitors are winless in their last five games, losing four of them.
They are still clutching onto fourth place, but any unlikely dreams of the title are now over.
Still, a place in Europe is up for grabs, and would represent a good season for Motherwell should they manage to hold on.
However, they will very much be the underdogs against an in-form Rangers team at Ibrox.
