Kevin Clancy will return to Ibrox this weekend for the first time since the controversy surrounding a challenge on Rangers star Alfredo Morelos.

The referee refused to send off Dundee United defender Ryan Edwards after he caught the Colombian above the knee with a challenge. This sparked a dispute which ultimately saw Gers boss Steven Gerrard in hot water and issued with a notice of complaint for comments following the tackle.

Gerrard, at the time, said: "He's a lucky boy that it's only a gash. I was impressed with United today so I don't want to make headlines and say a kid should have got this or that. I don't want to be that type of manager. But what I would say is that I'd be very interested to see what the decision would have been from the officials had the shoe been on the other foot and Alfredo had made that tackle."

The manager did not face any punishment from the SFA.

Clancy will not, however, be the man in the middle but instead will take the role as fourth official. Nick Walsh will take charge of the action as Gers welcome Aberdeen to Glasgow.

Rangers hold a nine point lead at the top of the table over Celtic who have two games in hand.
