Further details surrounding the game, which will be the first meeting between the two teams since 2011, will be communicated in due course.

Rangers have asked their fans not to plan any trips to Blackpool or Merseyside for pre-season friendlies scheduled for next month.

The Ibrox men are due to take on Blackpool and Tranmere in friendlies before the league season kicks off, with one more game also to be announced.
