Footymad preview History of the Rangers v Hibernian fixture

Hibernian face a trip to Rangers at Ibrox Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 98 out of 147 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in November 2010, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a Scottish Premier match.
