- Frankie Kent and Toby Sibbick came in to a back three, as Stephen Kingsley dropped onto the bench, after the Jambos fielded a back four in their last game at Tynecastle against Dundee. Barrie McKay and Kenneth Vargas also made way.
- Scott Fraser and Aidan Denholm were given a chance to impress in midfield, with Beni Baningime benched. Kyosuke Tagawa replaced Lawrence Shankland, who bagged his 30th goal of the season off the bench, to score his first league goal.
- Rangers boss Philippe Clement named five changes to the Gers team that lost 2-1 to Celtic in Saturday lunchtime's Old Firm, before a 5-2 victory over Dundee at Ibrox where they had to bounce back from two goals down on Tuesday night.
- Leon King made his first Scottish Premiership start of the season, as he and Ridvan Yilmaz replaced John Souttar and Borna Barisic in the Gers' back four. Nicolas Raskin took the suspended John Lundstram's place in midfield.
- Todd Cantwell started in the middle of the park, at Tom Lawrence's expense. Dujon Sterling made way for Ross McCausland to play on the right hand side. Scott Wright came off the bench to bag a brace in midweek so could start here.
