Rangers boosted by Papac news
The full-back was forced to withdraw from Sunday's 3-2 win over Hibernian late on with a knee problem, having just returned from a spell on the sidelines with an ankle gash.
It was initially feared he had suffered ligament damage at Easter Road and, had that been the case, it is unlikely he would have featured again this term.
But the Bosnian was assessed by club medical staff on Monday morning and they expect him to be back in training later in the week.
Papac is suspended for this weekend's Homecoming Scottish Cup semi-final against St Mirren and should be fit to play in the final five league games of the season.
Assistant boss Ally McCoist told the club's official website: "The worst scenario would have been that Sasa had ligament damage and that would have been a major concern if that was the case.
"But we're optimistic it's stiffness more than anything and hopefully he'll be okay.
"He has been seeing the physio this morning and we're hoping the problem isn't too serious.
"Sasa hasn't had his troubles to seek lately after he needed stitches in his foot against St Mirren a couple of weeks ago.
"Now he has a knee knock but he's a hardy soul and we're keeping our fingers crossed for him."
