Kevin Kelsy also contributed significantly, netting his first league goal before halftime. This victory marked Rangers' sixth consecutive league win and seventh overall, showcasing their strong form.

Despite the win, Rangers faced some challenges in the second half. They missed out on achieving a fifth successive clean sheet when Kilmarnock's Nicky Clescenco scored during a last-minute counter-attack.

Key match details include:

• Rangers: 3 goals
• Kilmarnock: 1 goal
• Goalscorers: Ryan Naderi (2), Kevin Kelsy for Rangers; Nicky Clescenco for Kilmarnock.

Derek McInnes, the Rangers manager, expressed disappointment with the team's second-half performance, as Kilmarnock managed to create several scoring opportunities. Although Rangers had four shots on target compared to Kilmarnock's six, goalkeeper Ivor Pandur was only seriously challenged once before conceding.

As the season progresses, the pressure is on Celtic, who can reclaim the top spot if they secure a favorable result against Motherwell on Sunday.
