History of the Glasgow Rangers v Hibernian fixture

Hibernian face a trip to Glasgow Rangers at Ibrox Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 90 out of 134 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2004, with Rangers running out comfortable 3 - 0 winners in a Scottish Premier match.

An indifferent set of results for Hibernian on the road, and I believe this game is only going to yield a solitary point for the Hibees. Score draw
