Hearts prepare to entertain Glasgow Rangers at Tynecastle Stadium on Sunday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 69 of the 138 previous games, with the Jambo's winning just 33.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tynecastle Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2004, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Premier match.
