Kenny Miller was back in the starting line-up for Rangers’ Clydesdale Bank Premier League game against Hamilton.
The striker, who has been holding talks with Birmingham and Fiorentina, was left out of the squad for Monday’s Scottish Cup win over Kilmarnock.
Nikica Jelavic was named on the bench as he bids to play his first match since October, while Steven Naismith failed to make the squad after struggling with a hamstring injury.
Hamilton were without suspended duo Simon Mensing and Jim McAlister following their red cards in the defeat to Celtic midweek.
With their squad stretched, Accies handed debuts to youngsters Micheal Devlin and Lee Kilday.
