Derek McInnes has provided injury updates on Cammy Devlin and Thelo Aasgaard following Rangers' draw against West Ham.
The Rangers manager saw his side draw 0-0 with the London outfit in their final outing of pre-season.
Aasgaard had to be replaced after falling awkwardly on his shoulder, while Devlin was withdrawn at half-time due to a kick on his calf.
But, speaking post-match, McInnes issued positive updates on either player.
"A couple of wee knocks, Cammy Devlin with his calf and Thelo with his shoulder, but both will be fine for the weekend. So the fact that we've come through the game without any injuries is pleasing."
Discussing the performance, McInnes admitted there is more to come from Rangers in the final third.
"We deliberately went in two different shapes, the first half and the second half, it was always intention," he said, with his team playing a back three after the break.
"The second half was just to try and get a shape that would allow us to get the boys the minutes. And I thought more shapes were decent in the game, I thought we looked solid enough, which was an improvement from the other night, to be honest. And I thought the intensity of the game was far better, I thought we were sharp in our work, particularly in the first half.
"I thought we turned the ball over well, I thought we looked after the ball well, and we got ourselves into some good areas, but we're a lack of quality at times let us down. The final cross or the decision to take a shot or not wasn't quite as clean as I would have hoped. And it's these sort of things that we need to work on in the last week or so.

"Obviously we're trying to address bringing a couple of key positions into the club, and as soon as we can get those in, the better I think, because obviously we've still got a long way in the window to go, but we want to be as strong as we can from the get-go for the league, and also in Europe."
