Raith Rovers' League One fixtures for 2019-20 season

The fixture lists for 2019-20 released by the SPFL this morning have handed the Kirkcaldy side a tricky trip to Dumbarton on the opening day of the campaign, Saturday, August 3.

John McGlynn's men will also play their final league game on the road, travelling to the Falkirk Stadium on Saturday, May 2 for what could be a potential title decider between two teams expecting to challenge for first place.

Rovers home opener will take place on the second week of the campaign with newly promoted Clyde, managed by Rovers legend Danny Lennon, who scored the famous free-kick in Munich in 1995, visiting Stark's Park on Saturday, August 10.

The eagerly-anticipated first derby of the season takes place at Bayview on the final day of the month with East Fife hosting Raith on Saturday, August 31.

Rovers will welcome relegated Falkirk, and former manager Ray McKinnon, to Stark's Park for the first time on Saturday, October 5.

The calendar year finishes with another derby in Methil on Saturday, December 28 while 2020 starts with a home match against Peterhead on Saturday, January 4.
