St Mirren v Rangers live stream, Premier Sports, Wednesday 16 December, 8.00pm GMT

Rangers will be looking to book their place in the Scottish League Cup semi-finals when they take on St Mirren on Wednesday.

Steven Gerrard’s side have enjoyed a brilliant start to the season, winning 15 and drawing two of their first Premiership fixtures to sit 13 points clear of Celtic in the standings. Their arch-rivals have admitted played two fewer games, but even victories in both of those contests would leave Rangers with a healthy advantage. The Home side are are a massive 9/1 with to take a big scalp.

The Gers are also through to the knockout stage of the Europa League, as well as being favourites to win the Scottish League Cup following Celtic’s shock exit in the round of 16. Rangers have not got their hands on this trophy since 2011 and will be desperate to go all the way this term, but Gerrard will guard against complacency among his players ahead of the trip to The Simple Digital Arena. The draw is currently 11/2 with Bet365.

St Mirren have a fight on their hands to stay in the Premiership this season, but a 1-0 victory over Motherwell at the weekend extended their unbeaten run in the top flight to four games. Their recent form has lifted them out of the bottom two, and Jim Goodwin’s side will therefore go into this quarter-final with renewed confidence, even though the odds are stacked against them. A Rangers will is the likeliest outcome, according to the bookies. Right now, you can get them at 1/4 to win this match.

Rangers will again have to make do without Jordan Jones, Nikola Katic and George Edmudson, but St Mirren have no fresh injury concerns as they seek to become the first team to beat the Light Blues in any competition this season.

Kick-off is at 8.00pm GMT and the game is being shown on Premier Sports in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a St Mirren v Rangers live stream from outside your country

If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Bukayo Saka assist. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below). 

All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.

There are plenty of options out there, including:
