Rangers assistant manager Ally McCoist has no fears about Kris Boyd rediscovering his goalscoring form after hailing him as one of the best in the business.
The striker failed to find the back of the net in his last three outings for the Ibrox side as he continues to battle back to his best after a double hernia operation.
But McCoist said: "He will be fine, I genuinely don't worry about Boydy. It's amazing how many times this happens, not just to Boydy, it happens to players in all sorts of walks of life."
He added: "Make no mistake about it, any opposition defence that plays against Boydy will know that and will know he is arguably the best in the business at doing that.
"It's just a matter of time before he starts hitting the net again."
Boyd famously grabbed five goals against Dundee United to break Henrik Larsson's record as the SPL's most prolific goalscorer.
But McCoist says Rangers can forget about another 7-1 win rout when both clubs meet in the Active Nation Scottish Cup quarter-final on Sunday.
He added: "I would certainly bet against it being 7-1 on Sunday.
"In many ways it was a really strange game and it wasn't as comfortable as the scoreline would suggest."
