The mood in both camps will be positive ahead of this game.
Motherwell claimed a top six place with dramatic last minute equaliser from Ricki Lamie against Livingston a fortnight ago.
Rangers will be buoyed by a Scottish Cup semi-final win over rivals Celtic at the weekend as well as booking their place in the Europa League semi-final.
The Steelmen have managed two draws against Rangers this season; both of which came at Ibrox.
They will be looking for an improvement on the last meeting at Fir Park though, with the visitors running out 1-6 winners on Hallowe’en despite ‘Well taking the lead through Bevis Mugabi.
This weekend’s match with Rangers will now go ahead on Saturday 23 April, with a noon kick off.
Rangers made a request to the Scottish Professional Football League, Police Scotland and to host broadcasters, Sky Sports, to seek permission to bring the game forward 24 hours.
Following approval from those bodies, Motherwell FC agreed to the proposal.
“Based on significant feedback over the years, we believe most of our fans would rather watch a match on a Saturday rather than a Sunday, and with our only other home fixture after the split being a Wednesday night, that was at the forefront of our thinking,” Chief Executive Alan Burrows said.
“In addition, the club believe it sensible to support all Scottish clubs playing in European matches.
“That being said, we would like to sincerely apologise for the length of time taken to make this call and the subsequent lack of notice of the change, which has been largely out with our control. We were initially approached on Good Friday, but we were only given confirmation of the change at 3:10pm today (Tuesday 19th).”
Motherwell’s post split fixtures for season 2022/23 have been announced by the SPFL.
The Steelmen will kick off with a home game against Rangers on Sunday 24 April, live on Sky Sports (12 noon kick off).
Graham Alexander’s men then travel to Tannadice for a third time this season the following Saturday, 30 April.
‘Well remain on the road with a trip north to face Ross County on Saturday 07 May before the last home game of the campaign sees third-place Hearts visit Fir Park the following Wednesday (11 May).
The final game of the season will be in Glasgow as Motherwell sign off against Celtic at Celtic Park on Saturday 14 May, live on Sky Sports, with a 12.15pm kick off.
“We stuck at it and to get the top six in that fashion, I’ve never experienced anything like it. I’m so pleased for everyone.”
Motherwell snatched a top six spot with a dramatic late show at Livingston.
Odin Bailey and Alan Forrest looked to have buried the Steelmen, with results elsewhere going against the team.
But Callum Slattery’s 30-yarder, followed by Ricki Lamie’s dramatic late header in the third minute of stoppage time, sent the away fans wild and secured the top six place.
Jake Carroll came into the team for the injured Stephen O’Donnell in the only change to the side which defeated St Mirren last time out.
Motherwell barely had a chance in a first 45 that was dominated by Livingston.
A mix-up in the Livi defence early on should have presented Efford a chance at an open goal, but the ball held up in the air long enough for the covering defender to clear.
After knocking on the door for long spells, the hosts took the lead in the 25th minute.
Forrest cut inside and split the defence with a through ball which Bailey ran onto and, with Kelly rushing out, poked the ball past him into the net.
O’Hara was introduced for Cornelius at the break as Motherwell looked to find some sort of response, and started the second half more positively.
Van Veen sent a difficult shot over the bar early on and then the Dutchman thought a shot two minutes later had crossed the line, but the linesman said goalkeeper Stryjek had kept it out.
Goss was bundled over in the box with no consequence as Motherwell flew out of the blocks and looked certain to claw their way back in.
But they would be the architects of their own downfall just before the hour mark.
Bailey was allowed to cut inside and get a shot away which was blocked, but fell to Forrest just inside the area. With the defenders slow to react, he was able to pick his spot, firing low and hard into the bottom-left corner.
Tierney and Woolery replaced Efford and Carroll as Motherwell looked to spark a reaction and it came with 18 minutes to go.
A ball into the box was cleared out where Slattery reacted quickest to sprint onto it and send a 30-yard piledriver into the bottom-left corner of the net to give ‘Well hope.
‘Well kept pushing but the big chances just wouldn’t come until the third minute of stoppage time.
A corner from the right, with Kelly up, Mugabi hit the bar with a header before Lamie reacted quickest to knock the ball over the line and send the away fans wild – and Motherwell into the top six.
Motherwell manager Graham Alexander says his side are in a good position going into the cinch Premiership match against Livingston.
The Steelmen’s win against St Mirren has ensured they are now in full control of whether they finish in the top six – something they have to take full advantage of as they go into the final pre-split match.
Connor Shields says Motherwell are well aware of the significance of the final cinch Premiership pre-split crunch match against Livingston.
There are just four points between fourth and 10th in the table, but a win will secure a top six finish for Motherwell regardless of results elsewhere.
Kevin Van Veen is your Paycare player of the month for March.
Beating Liam Kelly, Ricki Lamie and Joe Efford in the public vote, Van Veen picks up his second player of the month trophy at Motherwell.
The striker, who scored his tenth goal of the season against St Johnstone after a mazy run, started in all four fixtures in March against Ross County, St Johnstone, Dundee and Hibernian in the Scottish Cup.
