Hearts face a trip to Glasgow Rangers at Ibrox Stadium on Saturday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 92 out of 136 times.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2003, the The Gers carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
