History of the Airdrie United v Hamilton Academical fixture

Airdrie Utd. prepare to entertain Hamilton Academical at Shyberry Excelsior Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Diamonds are clearly on top, having won 44 and lost only 17 of the 74 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Shyberry Excelsior Stadium was earlier this season, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Scottish Division One match.
