In their encounters, Rangers have taken all nine points since van Bronckhorst was appointed (10 v 1 on goals), so they should be overwhelming favourites. They'll be emotionally drained from their exertions in Spain, of course, but they have greater strength in depth and, unlike 1998, Hearts have key injuries in key positions. Suspect it will be more 1976 than 1996, though any victory will likely be scant consolation for Rangers after coming so close in Europe.
