Rangers’ Andrew Potter, Sam Applegate, Ben Mitchell, Chris Walker and John Henry took to the field against the professional side in the first half, as they competed for the Northern Representative side.
While it's a short turnaround for the classy players, the Rangers aren’t expected to be challenged by Wauchope, who are stranded on the bottom of the ladder.
Rangers hold onto second place on the ladder and should cruise to victory against Wauchope.
However, Wauchope did earn an upset victory against Port United earlier this season.
A victory for the Rangers could see them move into first place, if Wallis Place drop points against the improving Camden Haven Redbacks.
Regardless, they will remain in the top two.
