Balogun, Aribo out of Rangers vs Kilmarnock - Gerrard

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has confirmed Leon Balogun and Joe Aribo will miss their Premiership fixture against Kilmarnock on Saturday.

The Super Eagles duo were dropped from the Gers’ trip to Livingston last Sunday due to injuries and they will miss their second game in a row this season.

Balogun sustained an injury around his quadriceps during Rangers’ 3-0 win over St. Johnstone while Aribo suffered a knock during a training session before the game in Livingston last week.
