ian1964 10,708 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 KENNY MILLER has declared himself fit to face Aberdeen in tomorrow's massive SPL showdown at Ibrox. Kenny Miller, Rangers celebrates his second goalThe striker missed Wednesday night's 1-1 draw with Hibs at Easter Road due to a hamstring problem but is ready to return for the club's penultimate game of the season. With a win imperative for Rangers Walter Smith will be delighted to have Miller back in his plans and the Scotland star is desperate to get on the scoresheet and erase the disappointment of missing his side's midweek trip to Edinburgh. He said: "It was very frustrating not to be involved against Hibs. "The game against Celtic last weekend was my first start for a while but my hamstring flared up again after that. "It took a few days for it to settle down but I am fit now and will train with the lads today. "Hopefully I can be in the starting eleven against the Dons." Miller is expecting a tough 90 minutes against Jimmy Calderwood's men but hopes Rangers can get off to a flyer in their last home fixture. He said: "We have to win the game first and foremost because you never know what could happen at Easter Road on Sunday. "If we can go out and get an early goal that will help to settle any early nerves, that has to be our aim. "But Aberdeen are a good team as we have seen when we faced them earlier this season.Kenny Miller battles with Shunsuke Nakamura "We will give them respect but if we play the way we can I am always confident we can get three points." With Celtic currently on top of the SPL on goal difference Rangers will look to attack from the first whistle on Saturday and Miller insists they have the firepower to shoot down the Dons. He said: "In the first-half on Wednesday we did not really get started but Kyle and Nacho came on and did very well. "Nacho got the goal big while Laff played on the left and made a difference. "So the manager has options in the forward areas and there is no doubt we have the players that can create and score goals." Andrius Velicka is the only striker that will not feature this weekend due to an illness but Sasa Papac should join Miller in the squad having recovered from a knee injury. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
