Livingston face a trip to Dundee at Dens Park on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 12 out of 18 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2008, with Dundee running out comfortable 2 - 0 winners in a Scottish Division One match.
