History of the Queen of the South v Dundee fixture

Dundee face a trip to Queen of the South at Palmerston Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The Dee will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 22 and win only 9 of the 41 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in January 2010, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
