Former Rangers striker Kris Boyd has backed North Macedonian forward Bojan Miovski to have a 'major say' in this year's title race, despite his up-and-down season at Ibrox.
There was a lot of excitement when the former Aberdeen hitman arrived at the club after signing a long-term deal from La Liga side Girona last summer. Despite scoring 11 goals in all competitions, Miovski has largely played back-up to fellow new arrival Youssef Chermiti.
Now, after playing a starring role in securing the club's win over Dundee United, Boyd reckons the pair could form a deadly partnership to fire Danny Rohl's side to the Scottish Premiership title. “Miovski came off the bench against Dundee United last Saturday at a pivotal moment and delivered with the fourth goal," the pundit told The Scottish Sun.

“It was a terrific strike and showed why there’s an argument to say he’s the club’s best finisher, what I liked was how selfish he was instead of slipping a pass as he might have done before. United had been pushing to make it 3-3 and Miovski melted all the nerves around Ibrox. Will it guarantee him a start at Falkirk on Sunday?
“Maybe not, unless Rohl opts to pair him with Chermiti, but Miovski will feature at some point, and it will be yet another chance to show he can have a major say in this title race.”
Rangers will be the final team to feature with regard to the title race this weekend, as Celtic and Hearts face St Mirren and Motherwell on Saturday afternoon, while Rohl's side play Falkirk on Sunday lunchtime.
