Raith Rovers are one of Scottish football’s older fixtures, founded in 1883 and based at Stark’s Park. In 2025-26 they operated in the Championship and also featured in League Cup Group H, with an experienced squad of 18 players and an average age of 28.
Their league form carried a clear split between home and away. At Stark’s Park they averaged 1.9 goals scored and 1.2 conceded per match, while on the road that dropped to 0.5 scored and 1.1 conceded. It made them a more awkward proposition at home than their away numbers suggested.
Dylan Easton was the main source of end product with 17 goals, well ahead of Jack Hamilton on nine. Innes Cameron added seven, with Jai Rowe and Lewis Vaughan contributing six each. Their recent league run reflected a side capable of putting opponents under pressure, with wins over Ross County, Queen’s Park, Greenock Morton and Ayr United sitting alongside defeats to St Johnstone and Arbroath.
With the 2025-26 season complete and Celtic confirmed as champions, Raith’s relevance to Celtic supporters is straightforward: a seasoned Scottish Championship club with enough attacking threat at Stark’s Park to merit proper attention whenever paths cross.
