Clash and Financial Struggles in Scottish Premiership

In the Scottish Premiership, Aberdeen and Rangers are set to face off, with Aberdeen aiming to maintain their unbeaten run under new manager Jimmy Thelin, while Rangers, led by Philippe Clement, are striving to secure a crucial win despite recent injuries. Meanwhile, Celtic, top of the league, will host Dundee, who are struggling in eighth place. Former Rangers striker Kris Boyd has cautioned against replacing Cyriel Dessers with Hamza Igamane, suggesting the latter isn't ready for a leading role. Financial constraints are affecting Rangers, with UEFA's new spending cap limiting potential investments, such as those from GlenAllachie owner Billy Walker. On the EFL Cup front, Liverpool are preparing for a challenging match against Brighton, who have proven strong at home.
