History of the Dundee v Partick Thistle fixture

Dundee prepare to entertain Partick Thistle at Dens Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Dee are clearly on top, having won 55 and lost only 19 of the 95 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Dens Park was less than a year ago, in December 2006, with Dundee running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a Scottish Division One match.
