Dio: Gers are ready to fire back to top

MOHAMED DIOMANDE insists Rangers are ready to take down Hearts and fire themselves back into the title race in this afternoon's super Sunday showdown.

Rejuvenated Gers head to Tynecastle to face the leaders on the back of an eight-game unbeaten league run under Danny Rohl which has launched them from the bottom six into fourth place.

A win today would move them to within six points of the Jambos with a game in hand.

And while Hearts won the previous meeting 2-0 at Ibrox.

Diomande insists Derek McInnes' side will be facing a far better Rangers outfit this afternoon.

That loss to the Jambos in Glasgow remains the only defeat Gers have suffered in the league this season, albeit they have drawn half of their 16 games so far.

Now Diomande plans to claim a statement win at the home of the leaders.

He said: "We have a good plan now and we put ourselves in this situation and it is important that the confidence is there.

"It is not going to be an easy game and we will go and do whatever we can to get the three points.
