History of the Livingston v Glasgow Rangers fixture

Livingston prepare to entertain Glasgow Rangers at Almondvale Stadium on Wednesday evening, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, beating their opponents 1 times from 5 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Almondvale Stadium was earlier this season, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.
