The Rangers face Arsenal in a preseason friendly at Ibrox this weekend, and forward Cedric Itten is looking forward to the match.
Neither team has exactly started their preseason preparations in style.
The Gers lost 1-0 away at Tranmere Rovers on Saturday afternoon, with Steven Gerrard far from happy with the performance.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta probably feels a similar way tonight after his Gunners team was beaten 2-1 at the Hibernian.
Emile Smith Rowe at least got on the roster, but Arsenal will look much, much better when they face the Rangers this weekend.
Cedric Itten has been speaking before the game and told Rangers TV that he thinks Arsenal are a “great opponent”.
The Swish forward no doubt saw players like Philippe Senderos and Granit Xhaka play for the Gunners, and now he has a chance to play the North London giants.

Itten feels the game is “great” for the Rangers, and hopes to play again at Ibrox after starting the preseason at Prenton Park.
“It’s a great game for us,” Itten said. “Arsenal are a great opponent and we are looking forward to the game in Ibrox, it is always great to play there,” he added.
The game will also see Arteta return to Ibrox after being a Rangers player, although Glen Kamara’s summer at Euro 2020 means he is unlikely to face his former club.
