Team news: Philippe Clement and Stuart Kettlewell name Rangers and Motherwell sides for Hampden showdown

Motherwell manager Stuart Kettlewell and Rangers boss Philippe Clement have named their sides for the Premier Sports Cup semi-final at Hampden.

The teams go head to head in the national stadium to settle who will meet Celtic in next month’s showpiece final.

Motherwell won their group before defeating fellow Premiership sides Kilmarnock and Dundee United to reach the final four, while holders Rangers saw off St Johnstone and Dundee at Ibrox to progress to this stage.

Now the teams will go all out to give themselves a chance of lifting the first silverware of the season and Kettlewell and Clement have made their decisions on who will start the action on Sunday afternoon.

Motherwell start with Aston Oxbrorough in goal, with Dan Casey, Kofi Balmer and Liam Gordon in defence.

Marvin Kaleta and Steve Seddon are on the flanks, with captain Lennon Miller, Ewan Wilson and Andy Halliday in midfield.

Tawanda Maswanhise and Apostolos Stamatelopolous are in attack for the Steelmen.

Two changes from Wednesday.

• Gordon and Halliday start
• Lennon Miller takes the armband
• Tony Watt back in the squad
