Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin is urging his players to be fearless when they face Rangers in their Scottish Premiership season opener. The match, which will be live on Sky Sports, is an opportunity for Goodwin's side to make a statement against their opponents. Goodwin, who has previously managed against Rangers' new manager Derek McInnes, is not expecting any surprises from the Ibrox side. He believes that his team's approach should be to set the tone early and show no fear, despite Rangers having talented players in their squad.
This game is also a chance for Dundee United to improve on their seventh-place finish from last season, with Goodwin aiming for a top-six spot and potentially competing for European places.
