Raith Rovers play host to Queens Park at Stark's Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rovers are clearly on top, having won 19 and lost only 8 of the 37 games.
The last time the two teams met at Raith Rovers was amazingly over twenty years ago, in July 1986, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Scottish Division Two match.
