Danny Röhl believes Rangers “can achieve something this season” and hopes they can take a “big step forward” on Sunday by beating Premiership leaders Hearts, live on Sky Sports. The Ibrox side were sixth in the league when Röhl was appointed as head coach in October, but an unbeaten run has moved them up to third while reigniting their title challenge.
Hearts is nine points ahead of them, despite having played one less game. However, if Celtic fails to beat Aberdeen, a win at Tynecastle Park would put them in second place at Christmas.

Röhl believes a win would be a statement of intent.He told Sky Sports News that if you are able to climb the table, and close the gaps one by one, it is fantastic.
“So far, we have made good progress since I came here. Now it’s time for a big game at the weekend. We are looking forward.
“If you can be clinical in the two boxes, then you might have a chance.
“I can see that the group is growing. Some individual performances have also improved, but we are aware that there are still parts of the game we can improve.”We’re not consistent in a single direction over 90 minutes. We will then move on to the next stage if we can achieve this.”I am really confident that we can achieve something this season.”
