History of the Livingston v Albion Rovers fixture

Livingston play host to Albion Rovers at Almondvale Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Livi are clearly on top, winning 55.00% of the games played between the two.

The last time the two teams met at Livingston was more than a decade ago, in January 1996, with Albion Rvs. inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Livi in a Scottish Division Three match.
