Dundee play host to Raith Rovers at Dens Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Dee are clearly on top, having won 33 and lost only 10 of the 56 games.
The last time the two teams met at Dundee was more than a decade ago, in January 1998, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
