The games between Rangers and Aberdeen are always tasty.

But this weekend's encounter will have some added spice, with a place in the Viaplay Cup final at stake.

Michael Beale will be desperate to ensure his side make the showpiece event in February. 

With Rangers nine points behind Celtic in the title race, the importance of the cup competitions has been ramped up somewhat.

However, Jim Goodwin's side will be equally keen to make it back to a cup final for a chance of silverware.

When is Rangers vs Aberdeen?

Rangers take on Aberdeen TODAY on Sunday, January 15.

The game will kick-off at 3pm.

It will take place at Hampden Park, Glasgow.

Is Rangers vs Aberdeen on TV and can I live stream it?

Yes, thankfully this semi-final clash will be broadcasted live on TV.

Viaplay will showcase the game on their channel. 

Coverage begins at 2.30pm - 30-minutes prior to kick-off. It will run until 6.30pm afterwards.

Team news

An official update from either camp has yet to be given. 

Rangers were dealt a fresh injury blow with Antonio Colak suffering a calf knock against Dundee United last Sunday. It's possible that he will be absent from this encounter.

Beale's side are of course without long-term absentees in Ianis Hagi, Tom Lawrence, Filip Helander and John Souttar.

For the Dons, as far as we're aware it should be as you were from their win over St Johnstone.
