Hide AdIt minimises the options available in attack to Van Bronckhorst.
However, Motherwell, it appears, are the perfect opposition to face without either Morelos or Roofe.
In Fashion Sakala and Cedric Itten, Rangers have the ideal combination to face the Steelmen.
The pair have scored 17 goals between them for the Ibrox side across 89 appearances combined.
Of those 17 goals, nine have arrived against Motherwell.
Itten has four league strikes to his name, all of which have been netted against the Steelmen, including a double in a 5-1 win at Fir Park in 2020.
Sakala has five league goals against Motherwell, including a hat-trick in a 6-1 success.
